And do not look for others' faults,

تَحَسَّسُوا look for others' faults

This is a present-tense verb addressed to a group, with the 'you all' subject built into its ending, and it sits in the jussive shape that the preceding prohibition word demands. The verb's pattern is the reflexive type, carrying the sense of probing into others' private affairs. No separate pronoun is needed because the plural 'you' is already inside the form.
