وَالشُّهَدَاءِ and the martyrs

The noun is a plural whose singular ends in a long vowel plus a glottal stop, which is why its written shape looks different from the earlier -in plurals, yet it sits in the same governed slot. It stays parallel to the rest of the list both in role and in its place after the partitive particle.
