The answer

The story mentioned is false and prohibited from being spread because it contains mockery of the Quran and an ugly misuse of its verses in inappropriate contexts, such as a dialogue between a foreign man flirting with a foreign woman and bargaining with her. Scholars have explicitly stated the prohibition of using the Quran in place of speech absolutely, unless the citation of verses is appropriate for the situation or for a perfectly matching event. As for the alleged dialogue in forums, it is ugly and forbidden because it involves an unlawful gaze, a request to touch a woman, and bargaining for indecency, all while using Quranic verses to support these abominations. Therefore, websites must be warned against publishing this story, and those who publish it should be denounced with an explanation of the reason.
