  And You alone we ask for help. He said: This verse divides, between Me and My servant, into two parts; to My servant belongs what he asked. So when he says "Guide us to the Straight Path" until the end of the surah, He said: These belong to My servant, and to My servant belongs what he asked.

  الْآيَةُ — the verse. A definite noun with 'the', the thing the preceding 'this' points to, and the subject of the statement about division. Its 'the' marks it as the specific verse under discussion, and the demonstrative plus this noun together mean 'this verse'.
