• وَعَنْ حُكْمِ مَا اِسْتَجَدَّ لَهُمْ مِنْ حَوَادِثٍ،

  And concerning the ruling on any new events that arose for them,

  حَوَادِثٍ — events. An indefinite plural noun 'happenings / events', the object of the specifying preposition before it, so it takes the genitive ending. The plural is an irregular reshaped form, and its indefiniteness keeps the events open-ended. It names the newly-arisen matters the Companions sought rulings on.
