الْأَمْرِ the command
An action-noun ('the commanding'), naming the act of enjoining as a thing, with al- making it the definite, general activity. It heads the well-known phrase 'enjoining right'. It carries the genitive ending as object of the preposition before it.
وَمَنْ ظَنَّ أَنَّ الْخَضِرَ وَغَيْرَهُ سُقْطُ عَنْهُمْ الْأَمْرِ لِمُشَاهَدَةِ الإِرَادَةِ وَنَحْوِ ذَلِكَ
And whoever believes that the Green One and others besides him were exempted from the command in order to behold the Divine Will and the like.
الْأَمْرِ the command
The definite noun naming what was lifted, the binding command. It is the thing the exemption removes, tied to the action-noun before it.
وَمَا عُظِّمَ بِغَيْرِ أَمْرِ اللَّهِ فَتَعْظِيمُهُ بَاطِلٌ
And whatever was exalted without the command of Allah, then its exaltation is void.
أَمْرِ command
This noun heads an 'of' pairing with the divine name after it, so it drops any article and takes definiteness from that owner. Governed also by the 'other-than' before it, it sits in the genitive; the phrase builds toward 'the command of God'.
