• وَقَوْلُهُمْ لَا تَلِدُ الْحَيَّةُ إِلَّا حَيَّةً، مَذْكُورٌ فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى وَلَا يَلِدُوا إِلَّا فَاجِرًا كَفَّارًا

  And their saying: 'A snake gives birth only to a snake' is mentioned in His saying: 'And they will not give birth except to a disobedient, disbeliever.'

  كَفَّارًا — disbeliever. This is 'an ingrate, disbeliever', indefinite, a second description of the begotten offspring, set beside the first. It takes the accusative to match, sharing the excepted-noun case. The two words together paint the kind of child meant.
