سَاعَةِ moment of
A noun ('moment/hour') that is the owned half of 'the like of the MOMENT', and itself heads a further 'of' pairing with the next word. So it is genitive after 'the like of', yet also gives up its own 'the' as the head of 'moment OF death'.
فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ لِسَاعَةِ كَذَا وَكَذَا
So she sent word to him asking him to come at a certain hour.
لِسَاعَةِ at a certain hour
The preposition li- ('at/for') fused to a noun ('hour/time'), governing it in the genitive, so 'at the hour of' is one word. Here the li- pins down a scheduled timepoint, and the noun heads an 'of' pairing with what follows.
