Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Sulayman, sent a set of questions. He says: Honorable Shaykh, peace be upon you. My first question is about the correct manner of the ruku' of the one praying in the prayer, and where his gaze should be in the state of ruku'?
Answer:
The ruku' of the one praying, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) explained by his action, is that he bows, bends forward, and straightens his back, placing his head in line with it, neither lowering it nor raising it. He places his hands on his knees with his fingers spread apart, each hand resting on a knee. This is the manner of ruku'. He straightens his back and extends it, straightening and extending it as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do. As for the gaze, he looks at what is beneath him, looking at the part of his prayer place that is in line with his line of sight. Yes.
