وَلِلنِّسَاءِ and for the women
Two prefixes stack here: wa- ('and') then li- ('for'), fused onto a noun with al- ('the'). The wa- adds a coordinate phrase and the li- assigns the following noun its genitive role as a beneficiary. So one word delivers 'and for the women', balancing 'among' with 'for'.
وَالْحِزْبُ الْآخَرُ أُمُّ سَلَمَةُ وَسَائِرُ نِسَاءِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،
And the other group was Umm Salama and the remaining wives of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.
نِسَاءِ of wives
A plural noun forming the owner half of 'the rest of the wives'; placed after 'remaining', it names whose remainder is meant and so takes the genitive. It in turn heads a further pairing with 'Messenger' after it, stacking the possessive chain.
