Past tense verb

وَنَجَّيْنَـٰهُمَا (And We saved both of them) is a past tense verb — the action already happened and is complete.

We translate it in past tense — "did", "created", "said", etc.

Verb form II — intensified

وَنَجَّيْنَـٰهُمَا (And We saved both of them) uses form II (فَعَّلَ) — the middle letter is doubled, which makes the meaning stronger or causative.
