ومن عاش فيه بالحيل والمكر والدهاء فلا بد له من خزي في الدنيا ومقت في الأخرى وإن تسود هذا،
Whoever lives by deceit, trickery, and cunning will inevitably face disgrace in this world and contempt in the next, even if they gain prominence.
الْأُخْرَى the next
Genitive after 'in', this is 'the other [life]', i.e. the hereafter. Its fixed final long 'a' never shifts for case, so position tells its role. So disgrace here, contempt there — both unavoidable.
ثم ينفخ فيه أخرى فإذا هم قيام ينظرون ،
Then it will be blown into again, and suddenly, they will be standing, looking,
أُخْرَى again
This means 'another [time] / again', in the accusative working adverbially — the second blast. Its fixed final vowel never shifts for case. So the trumpet sounds a second time.
فضحك الوزير وأعطاه عشرة آلاف درهم أخرى
The minister laughed and gave him another ten thousand dirhams.
أُخْرَى another
This describing word matches the noun it follows in being feminine and definite-of-context, agreeing with it the way Arabic adjectives shadow their noun in gender, number and case. It marks the new ten thousand as a further, separate batch.
قال أخبرته أني اشتريت دارًا في الجنة بعشرة آلاف درهم، فأعطاني عشرة آلاف أخرى
He said: I told him that I bought a house in Paradise for ten thousand dirhams, so he gave me another ten thousand.
أُخْرَى another
A modifier agreeing in gender and case with the amount it follows, marking this ten thousand as a further, separate batch from the first.
جعل مهر الأخرى طلاق الدنيا بتاتا،
He made the dowry of the Hereafter a final divorce from this worldly life,
الْأُخْرَى of the Hereafter
The owning half of 'dowry of the Hereafter', in the genitive because it completes the possessive pairing. The 'the' makes the pairing definite, and the ending and order carry the 'of' with no separate word, tying the bride-price to the next life.
فَذَاكَ إِذْ يَدْعُوْهُمْ الرَّسُولُ فِي أُخْرَاهُمْ،
And that was when the Messenger called to them from behind.
أُخْرَاهُمْ their rear
A noun for the 'rearmost part' with a '-hum' 'their' tail attached, so one word means 'their rear'; held in the genitive by the 'in' before it, it places the Messenger at their backs. The attached possessor names whose rear it is.
فَإِذَا فَرَغُوا تَلَتْ طَائِفَةٌ أُخْرَى عَلَى عَدَدِهِمْ آيَةً ثَانِيَةً،
When they finished, another group recited a second verse according to their number.
أُخْرَى another
A feminine adjective 'another' modifying 'a group'. It agrees with its noun in gender, number, and the indefinite, subject-style case. Such full agreement marks it as bound to the noun, distinguishing this set from the previous reciters.
