The ruling on moving the index finger during the tashahhud
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: May Allah preserve you, what is the ruling on twisting the index finger while reciting the tashahhud?
Answer:
It is a sunnah (recommended practice). It is a hadith of the Shi'ah. The pointing of the index finger indicates tawhid (the oneness of Allah), so it is a sunnah. If you move it, there is merit in that, and if you do not move it, the tashahhud is valid. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah bless you,
