فقد قرأ مقت الشعراء في سورة الشعراء
He has indeed read the contempt for poets in Surat Ash-Shu'ara.
مَقْتَ — the contempt. This is the object of 'read', in the accusative — a verbal noun meaning 'loathing / contempt' — and it heads a possessive: 'the contempt OF the poets'. So it is both what was read and the owner of the noun to come.
