The answer

It is recommended to remain in the mosque after the Fajr prayer until sunrise due to the great reward it entails, and because of the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "Whoever prays Fajr in congregation, then sits remembering Allah until the sun rises, then prays two rak'ahs, will have a reward like that of a complete, complete, complete Hajj and ."

As for reading the Quran collectively in one voice, it is not legislated. It becomes even more disliked if done in a loud voice that disturbs those praying and remembering Allah, based on his (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "And let not some of you raise your voices over others in recitation during prayer." However, if the purpose of collective recitation is teaching, or if each person reads for themselves without causing disturbance, then it is permissible.
