The ruling on participating in a recitation circle in which they raise their hands

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This is the last question. The questioner says: I am a student whom Allah has accepted for study at the Islamic University in Madinah, and I will return to my country. I used to attend a recitation circle in our mosque, but they recite al-Fatihah, or after al-Fatihah they raise their hands in supplication after finishing the recitation.

Answer:
Explain to them that this has no basis and that it is a bid'ah (religious innovation). If they comply, fine; otherwise, memorize the Qur'an with them, but do not participate in this bid'ah. Do not participate in it.
