The ruling on hiring someone to recite the Qur'an on the condition that the reward belongs to the one who hired him

Question : Now, if I want to hire a man to recite the Qur'an.

Answer : And the reward is for whom? It is not permissible, because the recitation of the Qur'an is not performed except as an act of devotion. By this, we know the misguidance of those people who hire reciters on the days of a relative's death in order for them to recite. This is forbidden from two aspects. The first aspect is that they induced this reciter to recite for a fee. The second aspect is the squandering of wealth, because this reciter does not receive any reward. And if he has no reward, the deceased does not benefit from it. The deceased does not benefit from money; he only benefits from the reward. And this reciter has no reward, so that is a case of squandering wealth.
