(الْحَمْدُ للَّهِ الَّذِي كَسَانِي هَذَا (الثَّوْبَ) وَرَزَقَنِيهِ مِنْ غَيْرِ حَوْلٍ مِنِّي وَلاَ قُوَّة...)
Alhamdu lillaahi alladhee kasaanee haadhaa (ath thawba) warazaqaneehi min ghayri hawlin minnee walaa quwwah
Praise be to Allah who has clothed me with this garment and provided it for me without any power or strength from me.

Praise opens it, and everything afterwards is a clause describing what the praise is for. Two actions are named: that He clothed the speaker with this garment, and that He provided it. The closing phrase then removes the speaker from both — without any power or strength from me. No request follows at any point, and the wording ends on that denial rather than on the praise.
The chapter places these words at the moment of getting dressed.
The garment is present and particular — this garment, not clothing in general. The final clause takes the credit for it away from the one now wearing it.
