And indeed, the two men are not equal in deeds of righteousness,
الْبِرِّ righteousness
This is the possessed half of 'deeds of righteousness', so it takes the (genitive) and its al- supplies the definiteness for the whole pairing. The two nouns side by side build 'deeds of righteousness' with no separate 'of'. It specifies what kind of deeds are meant.
