شَفِّعْ لِنَا إِلَى رَبِّنَا
Intercede for us with our Lord.
لِنَا for us
A small preposition with -na ('us') fused on, 'for us', marking who benefits from the requested intercession. The preposition forces the pronoun into its object-of-preposition shape and pins down the beneficiaries, the speakers themselves. So it tells us on whose behalf the plea is made.
ثُمَّ قَالَ مَنْ رَجُلٌ يَذْهَبُ فَيَعْلَمُ لِنَا عِلْمَ الْقَوْمِ
Then he said, 'There is a man who goes and learns the people's knowledge for us.'
لِنَا for us
This is the preposition 'for' plus the ending 'us', flagging the people the errand benefits. The preposition assigns the beneficiary role: the man would learn on their behalf. The fused pronoun makes one word do the work of 'for us'.
