The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: There are some brothers who cite Qur'anic verses in worldly situations where they do not belong.
The Shaykh:
What do they attach it to?
The questioner:
To worldly matters. For example, if a person wants to do something, and one of his colleagues has already done it, he says, “Allah is sufficient for the believers in fighting.” What is the ruling on this?
The Shaykh:
This is not an interpretation of the verse; it is merely a type of quotation. It is better to avoid it, but we do not consider it forbidden. We do not consider it among the forbidden things. It is just a quotation, not an interpretation of the verse. Yes.
