And when it was evening, it was as if he were a sick person worn out by illness.
السُّقْمُ the illness

وقال عليه الصلاة والسلام إن لله عبادا يضن بهم عن القتل والسقم،

وَالسُّقْمِ and the illness
A fused 'and' plus a noun with 'the', 'and the illness', the second harm, sharing the (genitive) form governed by the earlier 'from'. It completes the pair they are spared.
