While it is a Quranic verse, it has become a cultural proverb used by many Arabic speakers, including Christians and secular individuals, to express the inevitability of death.

It is generally considered too formal and sacred for pets. For a pet, it's better to say 'أنا حزين لموت قطتك' (I am sad for the death of your cat).

'Mawt' is the general word for death. 'Wafat' is a more formal/polite term often used in news and official documents.

The word 'taste' (dhawq) in Arabic implies a direct, sensory, and inescapable experience that affects the whole being.

Yes, but only if you are sending a formal condolence message to someone who has lost a loved one.

No, because 'Kullu nafsin' (Every soul) is singular and universal, the phrase remains exactly the same.

You can say 'ونعم بالله' (And yes, [we trust] in God) or 'الحمد لله' (Praise be to God).

Rarely in pop songs, but it appears in 'Anasheed' (religious chants) and classical poems set to music.

It is considered B2 because while the words are simple, the grammatical construction and cultural weight require upper-intermediate maturity.

No, that would be seen as extremely melodramatic and inappropriate. It is strictly for physical death.
