Sometimes some religious leaders made a mistake in understanding the Quran. That mistake is that instead of using the Qur'an and obtaining the content from the Qur'an, they imposed what was in their own mind as a prejudice on the Qur'an. They understood something through philosophy, mysticism, jurisprudence, hadith, or theology, and they reached a conclusion in their own understanding, and they tried to obtain this result from the Qur'an at any cost.
Sometimes they have had to dissuade the verses of the Qur'an even from their appearance, which they say is a very dangerous interpretation. For example, a famous 19th century Indian Writer Sir Seyyed Ahmad Khan is an example, and he had a tendency towards the England that gave him the nickname "Sir".
He compared some of the miracles of the prophets in the Qur'an with material standards, he transferred these cases to a different meaning, and this is an arbitrary interpretation, which of course is wrong.
You should not approach the Qur'an with prejudice. We should not use the Qur'anic verse as a reason or argument for what we have obtained and understood in another way. Of course, if in the interpretation of some words that have a literary or ironic meaning, rational reasoning or an authentic and correct narration is used in the interpretation of a verse and it is expressed contrary to the appearance of the verse, it is permissible and there is no problem.
