A past-tense 'he' verb on the 'do well / act finely' pattern, subject built in, governed by 'whoever'. Inside the conditional its past shape reads as a general 'whoever does good'. The form is the verb of beautiful, excellent action, setting the deed that earns the later reward.

أَحْسَنَ does good
