Is it correct that some people say the reason a disbeliever receives his book from behind his back is that he was hiding his left hand?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Some people say that the reason he receives his book from behind his back is that, after seeing the people of faith receive their books with their right hands, he hides his left hand behind his back and extends his right hand, hoping to receive his book with his right hand. Then he is surprised to find that his book is in his left hand, which he had hidden behind his back. Is this statement correct?

Answer:
If he brings evidence from the Book and the Sunnah, it is correct. But if he does not bring evidence and it is merely an imagination based on his knowledge, it has no value. Yes.
