وَ«لَا فِي الدَّارِ رَجُلٌ وَلَا امْرَأَةٌ».
Translation: And: There is neither a man nor a woman in the house.

«لَا فِي الدَّارِ رَجُلٌ وَلَا امْرَأَةٌ»: the prepositional phrase fī l-dāri intervenes between lā and the noun.
That separation prevents the special construction: rajulun is nominative, not built on fatḥ as the direct noun of lā.
The source also repeats lā.
