الصِّرَاطِ the path

A definite noun ('the path') standing in the genitive as the object of the preposition 'to' before it, so it is the destination. The al- marks it as the specific, known path. It owns the adjective 'Straight' that follows.

الَّتِي بِجَنَبَتَيْ ذَاكَ الصِّرَاطِ،

which are on the two sides of that path,

الصِّرَاطِ the path

This noun carries al- ('the'), so it is definite, and it sits in the genitive case because the demonstrative phrase and the earlier preposition govern it. It is also the second half of the 'that path' pairing, taking its pointed-to status from the demonstrative in front of it.
