أَكْثَرَ he increases

A past-tense verb here meaning 'does much / increases', carrying its own 'he' subject. Under the 'the more' construction its past shape reads as a recurring present, and the subject is then named separately right after.

And he said, I used to be a man who often drank intoxicants.

أَكْثَرَ most

This is a comparative/elative word meaning 'more, greater in', and it leans on the noun after it to say in what respect: 'greater in drinking'. It functions as a description of the man, intensifying the habit rather than naming a new action, and it sets up the following noun as the area of comparison.

From A Night of Reckoning

فَإِنْ كَانَ لَهُ مَعْرِفَةٌ وَعِلْمٌ زَادَ فِي السَّعْيِ وَالْجَمْزِ بِقَدْرِ التِّفَاتِهِ أَوْ أَكْثَرَ،

If he has familiarity and knowledge, he increases his effort and steadfastness in proportion to how often he turns to him, or even more.

أَكْثَرَ more

An elative 'more', the second option after 'or', extending the proportion upward ('that much, or more'). As an elative it implies a comparison to the just-named measure. Standing as the alternative, it tops off the scale of his redoubled effort.
