والبنين وكم صغر قاسى الأب لأجل الصغار، فلما ترقوا فعقوا والعقوق من الذنوب الكبار،
And the children, how much hardship the father endures for the sake of the young; but when they grow up, they disobey, and disobedience is among the grave sins,
الْكِبَارِ the great
A describing word qualifying the sins, placed after them and matching in definiteness and the genitive case. The agreement of endings is what ties 'great/grave' to that noun, so the line ends by ranking disobedience among the most serious sins.

زاحمت كبار العلماء قالوا تاالله لقد آثرك،
I competed with the great scholars, and they said, 'By Allah, you have been chosen!'
كِبَارَ great
This adjective opens a possessive pairing with the next word, 'great ones of the scholars'. Standing first in such a pairing, it drops any article of its own and takes its definiteness from the noun that follows, and it carries the -a ending because it is the object of the verb 'I competed'.
