Example sentence

يغتفر ملاح سفينتها إلى جذفٍ واصطبار،

Its sailor overlooks the world, rowing with patience and endurance,

وَاصْطِبَارٍ and endurance

The 'wa-' adds 'endurance' alongside 'rowing' as a second goal, so it stays in the genitive matching its partner. Coordinated nouns share the case of the one before them.

يُغْتَفَرُ أَمْلَاحُ سَفِينَتِها إِلَى جَذْفٍ وَاصْطِبَارٍ،

The sailor of its ship will be forgiven for his rowing and his steadfast endurance.

وَاصْطِبَارٍ and steadfast endurance

The connector wa- ('and') fused onto an action-noun, coordinating it with the rowing as a second forgiven thing — 'and endurance'. Because the earlier preposition governs both coordinated items, this one also carries the genitive ending. The wa- simply adds it to the list rather than starting a new thought.
