Saying Masha Allah sarcastically

Q: If somebody uses "ma shaa Allaah" sarcastically in response to a sarcastic sentence, this is surely wrong, is it not? And is this kufr? Secondly, if someone laughs at the use of sarcasm here have they done kufr?

A:

1. This is not kufr. However one should refrain from this, as this amounts to showing disrespect to the word of Allah Ta'ala.

2. No.

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