وأخرج منهاجًا وأبًا جعله أقواتا،
And He brought forth pasture and herbage, making it sustenance,
وَأَبًّا and herbage
The 'and' joins a second object, keeping it in the same accusative as the first, since coordination carries the case along. So this noun stands grammatically level with the pasture as the second thing God brought forth from the land.
