For if he is a believing, rational person with insight, he is harder for the devil than the mountains.
الْجِبَالِ — the mountains. This noun is the object of the comparative 'than', so it sits in the (genitive); it is a plural and its al- makes it definite, 'the mountains'. It is the standard the believer's hardness is measured against. Its case is the effect of the comparative preposition.
