  And whoever was disobedient, he will emerge from his grave sorrowful and gloomy, with a dark, blackened face.

  عَاصِيًا — disobedient. This is the predicate of 'was', an active participle meaning 'disobedient', so the being-verb puts it in the object case. With no 'the' it stays indefinite, describing the state the person was in.
