Is it permissible to quote verses or parts of verses from the Holy Quran and use them in daily life conversations, such as saying: "Restaurant food neither fattens nor avails against hunger" or "Wait until I tell you a mention of it"?

Quoting is when a speaker incorporates words from the Qur’an or Hadith without indicating it. Quotation is divided into two types: what is quoted without altering its original meaning, and what is quoted with an alteration of its original meaning. The majority of jurists permit quoting to embellish speech if it is for legitimate Islamic purposes, but it is not permissible in corrupt speech. Scholars have differed on its permissibility; Malikis were strict regarding it, while others permitted it in prose but not in poetry. The best division of quotation is into three categories: acceptable in sermons and admonitions, permissible in flirtatious poetry, letters, and stories, and rejected if what belongs to Allah is attributed to the quotist, or if it is used in a jocular or lewd sense. It is not permissible to use Qur’anic verses for jest or mockery, as that may be considered apostasy from Islam. However, citing verses for events that have occurred is permissible.
