Adding Qiraat to adverts on social media

Q: Please advise on adding beautiful qiraat from well known Qurras to adverts shared on social media platforms.

A: This is extremely deplorable behaviour - that one uses the Quraan aayat when advertising material products. Is this the reason for the revelation of the Quraan Shareef, that you use it to market a thing that is not even worth a wing of a mosquito? Such people should make taubah and never repeat it again.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
