What is the ruling on making du'a' after reciting the Qur'an in a circle and committing to doing so?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Regarding making du'a' after reciting the Qur'an in the Fajr prayer, meaning if a group is in a circle of Qur'an recitation, some say it is permissible to read daily and continuously, meaning every Fajr prayer they read the circle and then the imam raises his hand and the others say "Ameen." Is this permissible?

The Shaykh : This commitment and habit was not the practice of the Salaf. What is established from Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) is that when he finished reciting the Qur'an, he would gather his family and make du'a'. This is prescribed. However, making it a habit that every Qur'an session ends with a collective du'a' is not part of the Sunnah in any way.

The questioner : Here... this hadith
The best of deeds are settling down and traveling خير الأعمال الحل والرحل
mentions this hadith in this topic. He cites this hadith as evidence because in the hadith of Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
The best of deeds are settling down and traveling خير الأعمال الحل والرحل
?

The Shaykh : What is the connection between this hadith and the issue?

The questioner : With the issue of the Qur'an, meaning the du'a' of the Qur'an, meaning during the circle when we asked for evidence, he brought this evidence, meaning?

The Shaykh : Ask him what this evidence is? It does not mention du'a', and it does not mention du'a' in a group.

The questioner : And the second hadith here is
Whoever recites the Qur'an and then makes du'a', four thousand angels will say "Ameen" to his du'a' من قرأ القرآن ثم دعا أمَّن على دعائه أربعة آلاف ملك
Sunan ad-Darimi 23:174
.

The Shaykh : Is this authentic? When someone brings you a hadith, you must always ask him: Do you believe that this hadith is authentic? Do you know that this hadith is authentic? You must ask this... This hadith is not authentic. As for the first hadith, I do not recall it right now—it is found in some of the Sunan—but I do not recall right now whether it is authentic or not.
