صَالِحًا good

An adjective in the accusative agreeing with 'a deed' before it, so its ending copies the noun's case to show it belongs to it. This is how Arabic links a description to its noun without any extra linking word.

وَمَنْ يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ يَلْقَ أَثَامًا يُضَاعَفْ لَهُ الْعَذَابُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَيَخْلُدْ فِيهِ مُهَانًا إِلَّا مَنْ تَابَ وَآمَنَ وَعَمِلَ عَمَلًا صَالِحًا

And whoever does that will incur sins; the punishment will be doubled for him on the Day of Resurrection, and he will abide in it abased, except for whoever repented and believed and did a righteous deed.

صَالِحًا righteous

An adjective 'righteous' describing 'a deed', matching it in being indefinite and in the accusative (object) form. Arabic adjectives follow their noun and agree in definiteness and case, which is why this is indefinite and object-formed. It specifies the kind of deed that earns the exception - a good one.
