Context & meaning
A single statement, and it is not addressed to Allah but spoken about Him. Rain has been received, and the sentence assigns the cause: the bounty and mercy of Allah. Two attributes are named rather than one. Nothing is requested, and the construction is passive — we have been given — so no agent appears until the final phrase arrives.
When & how to recite
The chapter places these words after rain has fallen.
Reflection
It is said once the rain has already come, and its only work is to name where it came from. That naming is placed at the very end of the sentence.
