Commentary
And when the clouds descend after the separation, what is in those clouds of water, or snow, or cold, or lightning, or other than that, which Allah intends from it, which brings to mind the remembrance of Allah, and certainly the angels cast what they have of the life-giving spirit for the hearts. He said, expressing with the conjunction of consequence and causation: 'So the ones who cast reminders.' He called it a reminder because it is the cause, whether it is carried by the clouds or carried by the angels. And it may be that the carrying of the angels is the remembrance of Allah in reality, and it is not hidden that they are both a cause for the rectification of religion and the world.
