The answer

The phrase "Religion is for God, and the homeland is for everyone" has no evidence from the Quran, , or the Righteous Predecessors. Rather, it is a secular phrase that aims to separate religion from the political life of Muslims. This statement is false because God is the Creator of creation and knows best what benefits them. Islam is a comprehensive religion that governs all aspects of a Muslim's life. Faith in God cannot coexist with the belief in the separation of religion from life's affairs, in accordance with His, the Almighty's, saying: "But no, by your Lord, they will not believe until they make you judge concerning that over which they dispute among themselves."
