حَالٍ circumstance

وَقَصْرُ طُولِ النَّهَى، وَلَوْ فَكَّكَهَا بِالِانْتِقَالِ مِنْ حَالٍ إِلَى حَالٍ لَتَنَفُّسٌ عَنْهَا ضِيقُ العُقْدَةِ،
He shortened the duration of his restraint; had he loosened it by shifting from one state to another, relief from the tightness of the knot would have followed.
حَالٍ one state
An indefinite noun (no 'the') naming the first condition, the origin of the shift. Sitting after the preposition it takes the genitive ending, reading 'from a state', the open starting point of the transition.
وَقَصْرُ طُولِ النَّهَى، وَلَوْ فَكَّكَهَا بِالِانْتِقَالِ مِنْ حَالٍ إِلَى حَالٍ لَتَنَفُّسٌ عَنْهَا ضِيقُ العُقْدَةِ،
He shortened the duration of his restraint; had he loosened it by shifting from one state to another, relief from the tightness of the knot would have followed.
حَالٍ another state
An indefinite noun naming the second condition, the destination of the shift, identical in form to the first 'state'. Sitting after 'to', it takes the genitive ending, and the repetition with 'from a state' yields 'state to state', the 'another' being implied.
