The Ruling on Using Qur'anic Verses as Analogies

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Regarding using the Qur'an as analogies,For example: one person might say to a man who deceived him:
But they plan, and Allah plansوَيَمْكُرُونَ وَيَمْكُرُ اللَّهُ
[Al-Anfal: 30] or say:
[think to] deceive Allah, but He is deceiving themيُخَادِعُونَ اللَّهَ وَهُوَ خَادِعُهُمْ
[An-Nisa: 142]?
If it is correct that the verse applies to this meaning, there is no harm, because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) cited the Qur'an when al-Hasan and al-Husayn came out stumbling in their garments, then he descended from the pulpit, took them, and placed them in front of him,Then he said: (Truthful is Allah:
your properties and your children are but a trialإِنَّمَا أَمْوَالُكُمْ وَأَوْلادُكُمْ فِتْنَةٌ
[At-Taghabun: 15] ).
But the important thing is that it applies,As for saying to a man:
[think to] deceive Allah, but He is deceiving themيُخَادِعُونَ اللَّهَ وَهُوَ خَادِعُهُمْ
[An-Nisa: 142] and he is a believer, this is not permissible, because this verse is about the hypocrites.
