2917. Al-Ḥasan narrated that 'Imrān bin Ḥuṣain passed by a reciter reciting then he began begging. So he ('Imrān) said: 'Indeed we are from Allāh and to Him shall we return.' Then he said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ saying: 'Whoever recites the Qur'an, then let him ask Allāh by it. For indeed there will come a people, who will recite the Qur'an, asking from the people because of it.''" (Hasan)
Maḥmūd said: "This is Khaithamah (a narrator in the chain) Al-Baṣrī, the one that Jābir Al-Ju'fī reported from. It is not Khaithamah bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān."
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan and this Khaithamah is from Al-Baṣrah, and his Kunyah is Abū Naṣr. He reported narrations from Anas bin Mālik, and Jābir Al-Ju'fī reported from this Khaithamah as well.

Commentary
The Qur'an is the Words spoken by Allāh; it should be recited for the sake of Allāh's pleasure, one should only beg of Allāh alone. Reciting the Qur'an just
for the sake of amusing people and to make it a means of begging of people is incorrect, because thus it will be a test and create corruption in matters of spirituality.
