فَأَلْقُوهُ so cast it
The prefix fa- chains this onto the previous command as the next step, 'and then cast'. It is a plural imperative with the attached -hu meaning 'it', so the verb already carries its object: one word for 'so cast it'.

أَلْقَاهَا He cast it

أُلْقِيَ he is cast
This is a passive-shaped past verb, 'he was cast', with no caster named. The passive, marked by the verb's inner vowels, shows the man as the one thrown, the receiver of the final action.
