He also mentioned those who took knowledge as a means and a goal to acquire the pleasures of the fleeting world and its perishable goods.
وَغَرَضًا and a goal
Joined by 'and' to the previous word, this is a parallel complement: the knowledge was made both a means and a goal. The bare ending again marks it as indefinite, 'a goal', and pairs it grammatically with the noun before it.

أَغْرَاضِهَا its aims
This noun takes the 'of' ending from the preposition before it, and 'its' is fused to its end. That attached owner reaches back to the selves or souls mentioned earlier, not to the nearest word, so reading it means tracing whose aims are meant across the line.
