حِيلَةٌ a strategy
This is the delayed subject of a 'there is...' statement, presented indefinite to introduce something new: a strategy that desires possess. Arabic commonly fronts the possessor with 'for', then lets the new thing follow in the subject ending, so word order signals what is being announced.
