عَابِدٌ a devout worshipper

This is an active participle, a 'one-who-worships' descriptive noun, here naming the type of person who has the vision. It stands as the delayed subject of 'sees', placed after its verb in normal Arabic order. As a participle it works like an agent-noun, turning the act of worship into the label for the seer.
