الرُّسُلَ the messengers
This noun carries 'the' and its ending marks it as the object of the sending verb. The accusative ending identifies the messengers as those sent rather than the sender.

الرُّسُلِ messenger
A plural noun made definite by al- 'the', in the genitive as the owner half of the pairing before it: 'the first of the messengers'. The genitive ending supplies the 'of' with no separate word, and its definiteness fixes the group referred to.
قَالَ أَنْ تُؤْمِنَ بِاَللَّهِ وَمَلَائِكَتِهِ وَكُتُبِهِ وَرُسُلِهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ، وَتُؤْمِنَ بِالْقَدَرِ خَيْرِهِ وَشَرِّهِ
He said: 'It is to believe in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, the Last Day, and to believe in predestination, its good and its bad.'
وَرُسُلِهِ His messengers
An 'and'-joined list item with an attached '-His', so God owns the messengers too. It rides the same 'believe in' verb as the earlier items, the 'and' marking it as one more entry. The possessive ending again points to God as the owner.
