لَا سِيْمَةِ إِذَا أَضَافَ إِلَى جَحْدِ الْحَقِّ الْمُقَابَلَةِ بِسُوْءِ الْمُنْقَلَبِ

الْحَقِّ the right

This noun carries al- 'the' and is the owner half of the 'denial of...' pairing, so it sits in the genitive. Arabic builds 'denial of the right' by setting the two nouns side by side, the genitive ending marking the 'of'. So it names what is being denied: the entitlement owed.
