The Position of Placing the Hands in Standing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Which of the two forms is more correct, Shaykh Salih: placing the hands below the navel or placing the hands on the chest?

Answer:
No, the hands are not placed on the chest; this is not in accordance with the Sunnah. The hands are placed in standing during prayer below the chest or below the navel, in one of two positions: below the chest or below the navel, not on the chest. Yes.
