تَفْعَلْ you (female) do it
A present-shape verb clipped by the preceding negator, which is the trick Arabic uses to deny the PAST: present shape plus that negator equals 'did not do'. The '-l' ending shows the clipping; the form is second-person feminine, 'you did it', here flatly denied.

تَفْعَلْ do (you)
A present-tense verb addressed to a single male, but pushed into its clipped jussive shape by the prohibition word just before it; that trimmed ending is exactly what marks 'do not do it'. The 'you' addressee is built into the verb. So the prohibition and this shortened verb shape work together to forbid the act.
