Example sentence
وَلَوْ كَانَ هَذَا عُذْرًا لَكَانَ عُذْرًا لِإِبْلِيسِ وَقَوْمِ نُوحٍ وَقَوْمِ هُودٍ وَكُلِّ كَافِرٍ
If this were an excuse, it would excuse Iblis, the people of Noah, the people of Hud, and every unbeliever.
عُذْرًا an excuse
The indefinite complement naming what 'this' is supposed to be; its bare, un-'the' ending leaves it general, 'an excuse of some kind'. It takes the object-like ending because the 'to be' verb assigns that case to the thing it describes.

عُذْرًا an excuse
The same 'excuse' noun repeated, now as the predicted result rather than the supposition — Arabic happily reuses the exact word to mirror condition and consequence. Its indefinite ending again keeps it general, and it carries the object-like case the 'to be' verb assigns.
