Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Sistani (may God protect him):
An Islamic country is one where Muslims are the majority, and the focus is on the city or village, not the state.
As for the restaurant and the company, the important factor is who you are buying from; it could be the owner of the restaurant or the manager or the sales representative.

Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Khamenei (may God protect him):
The criterion for a country or land being attributed to Muslims is the predominance of the population and residents such that it is commonly recognized as theirs, even if they are under the authority of non-Muslims. Similarly, this is the criterion for a non-Muslim country; if the proportions are equal in terms of lack of predominance, it is treated like a non-Muslim country.
