جعل مهر الأخرى طلاق الدنيا بتاتا،
He made the dowry of the Hereafter a final divorce from this worldly life,
مَهْرَ — the dowry. This noun is the first object of 'made', in the accusative, and it heads a possessive pairing, 'the dowry of the Hereafter'. So it both receives the making and opens the 'of' relationship completed by the next word.
