قُلْنَا we said
A past-tense verb whose 'we' ending is built into its tail, so the speakers are named inside the word; it stands as the verb of the 'what we said' clause. The first-person plural ending is how Arabic carries 'we' without a separate pronoun.
فَقُلْنَا لَهَا فَكَلِّمِيهِ،
So we said to her, 'Then speak to him.'
فَقُلْنَ so we said
Two forces in one word: the fa- chains the clause with a light 'so', and the past verb's ending marks 'we', the first-person plural built into its tail. The prefix links the speech while the verb names the speakers without a separate pronoun.
