These Qaaris whom you are branding faasiq have spent their whole lives learning and reciting the Holy Book of Allah.

Answer

Yes, they are deserving. But they deserve Jubbul Huzn. While these qurra may have 'spent their entire lives "learning and reciting the Qur'aan', the Book of Allah Ta'ala has had no effect on their hearts, hence they prefer the appearance of the kuffaar to the appearance of the Ambiya and the Sahaabah, and the appearance of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). They are decidedly evil – extremely evil, and their spending their lives with the Qur'aan will not help them, because Allah Ta'ala has prepared one of the worst valleys of Jahannum for them. In this regard Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said:

"Seek refuge with Allah from Jubbul Huzn. They (the Sahaabah) said: 'O Rasulullah! What is Jubbul Huzn?' He said: 'It is a valley in Jahannum. Daily Jahannum seeks refuge from it 400 times.' It was said: 'O Rasulullah! Who will enter it?' He said: 'It has been prepared for such qurraa' who display their deeds. Verily, the most hated qurraa' by Allah are those who visit the rulers."

About men of this ilk, Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) will complain to Allah Ta'ala on the Day of Qiyaamah: "Verily, my people have taken this Qur'aan to be an object for discarding." (Qur'aan)
