مَشَقَّةً burdensome
The description carried by the linking verb, 'a hardship'. Because that 'to be' verb governs its predicate into the object ending, this noun takes that ending even though it merely describes the subject.

Similarly, truthfulness, trustworthiness, righteousness, and benevolence, though they cost effort, elevate one's status and increase his good deeds.
مَشَقَّةً effort
The second object of 'cost', 'hardship', naming what is exacted. It also takes the object ending; the two objects together read 'cost the person hardship'.
