How to Place the Hands in Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
You are asking about the placement of the hands in prayer and how to do it, Honorable Shaykh?

Answer:
Between the two hands in the standing position, they are placed on the chest. The left hand is grasped by the right palm, and they are placed on the chest, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do. As for the bowing position, the hands are on the knees, with each hand gripping a knee, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do. As for the prostration, the hands are placed on the ground, and they are among the seven members of the ablution. In the sitting between the two prostrations, or the sitting for the first or last tashahhud, the hands are placed on the thighs. Yes.
