وَلِهَذَا أَجَابَ مُعَاوِنُ الشَّرْعِ بِالْتَغْرِيبِ وَالْتَرْهِيبِ يَقْوَى جُنْدُ الْعَقْلِ
For this reason an assistant of the Shari'a replied: By alienation and intimidation the forces of reason become stronger.
وَالْتَرْهِيبِ — and intimidation. The connector wa- ('and') fused to a second noun made definite by al-; it is coordinated with the previous bi- phrase, so it too is read as an instrument and stays in the genitive under the same 'by'. It adds the second means alongside the first.
