He resisted desire with the wisdom of the intelligent, not the ignorant.

ٱلْغَبِيِّ the ignorant

The al- makes this definite, 'the ignorant one'. It is the excluded term after the negator and matches the case of the noun it is contrasted with, so it carries the -i ending parallel to 'the intelligent'.
