He swore about the Quran being true and truthful, saying 'It is a decisive word and not a jest.'

حَقًّا true

An indefinite noun in the object-style ending, working as the described state inside the verbal-noun phrase: 'its being true'. The accusative-style ending marks it as the predicate of that embedded being-clause, the role English fills with 'true' after 'is'.

أُولَئِكَ هُمْ أَوْلِيَائِيُ حَقًّا حَقًّا

Those are truly my allies, truly.

حَقًّا truly

This is an adverb of affirmation, 'truly', driving home the certainty of the claim, and its object-form ending marks it as this kind of emphasizer. It strengthens the whole statement rather than describing a single word. Repeating it, as the sentence does, intensifies the emphasis further.

أُولَئِكَ هُمْ أَوْلِيَائِيُ حَقًّا حَقًّا

Those are truly my allies, truly.

حَقًّا truly

This repeats the affirming adverb 'truly', its object-form ending again marking it as an emphasizer. The doubling is deliberate, piling certainty on certainty for the claim about the allies. Arabic intensifies by repetition where English might use 'truly, truly' or italics.
