العادل في اقضيته لم يخف ولم يجر،

The Just One in His decrees, He neither feared nor acted unjustly,

أَقْضِيَتِهِ His decrees

This noun takes the 'of' ending demanded by the preposition before it, and a possessive 'his' is fused to its end, reaching back to God named earlier in the line. Arabic lets such an attached owner point some distance back, so tracking that the decrees belong to the Just One, not to any nearer word, is part of reading the line.

ٱلْقَضَاءَ the judgment
