There is no harm in using the phrase "صدق الله العظيم" (Allah, the Most High, has spoken the truth) after completing the recitation of the Holy Quran, as long as the reciter does not deliberately alter a Quranic verse. The permissibility of this phrase is indicated by its narration from some of the early generations (Salaf), and it was mentioned by Imam Al-Shafi'i, Al-Ghazali, Ibn Hajar, and other scholars, and none of them condemned its use.
