What are the morning and evening adhkar, and are the hands raised during supplication?

The questioner : The questioner says in her second question: Shaykh, what are the important adhkar in the morning and evening, and does a Muslim raise his hands in supplication if it includes du'a? What are they?

The Shaykh : What are the important adhkar that a Muslim recites in the morning and evening, and are the hands raised in supplication? Yes. Special books have been written on the morning and evening adhkar, such as Al-Wabil al-Sayyib by Ibn al-Qayyim, Al-Adhkar by al-Nawawi, Hasan al-Muslim, and other well-known books, so refer to them. As for raising the hands in supplication, yes. Because it is prescribed that one who performs it raises his hands.
This issue, which I mean raising the hands in supplication, has three cases. The first case is where there is a text specifying the raising of the hands. That is, raising them as in the du'a of qunut, and raising the hands in the khutbah during the prayer for rain, and during the prayer for the cessation of rain, meaning asking for the rain to stop.
The second category is where there is a text specifying the non-raising of the hands. Raising the hands in supplication during the Friday khutbah, other than for rain or the cessation of rain. If one raises them, it is a bid'ah (religious innovation), whether it is the imam or the one listening to the khutbah. And raising the hands in supplication between the two prostrations, and supplication in the final tashahhud, and the du'a of istiftah: "O Allah, bless between me and my sins." It is forbidden to raise the hands in these. The third category is where there is no text specifying raising or prohibiting it. The default is that raising the hands is recommended (mustahabb). Because that is among the etiquettes of the supplicant. And in the hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: Also, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: So his supplication is not answered for that.

The questioner : The adhkar after the prayer, Shaykh, does one raise his hands in them?

The Shaykh : The adhkar, may Allah bless you, do not involve raising the hands. If there is no text prohibiting or specifying raising, the default is that raising the hands is recommended (mustahabb).

The questioner : Very well, may Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : That supplication after the prayer is not among the prescribed matters, because Allah the Exalted said in the Qur'an that one should recite the Noble Qur'an and did not command supplication.

The questioner : May Allah reward you.

The Shaykh : The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) [indicated] that the place of supplication is before the taslim. He mentioned the tashahhud, then said: "When one of you recites the final tashahhud, let him seek refuge with Allah from four things: I seek refuge with Allah , and he also said, when one has finished the final tashahhud, then let him choose whatever supplication he wishes. So this is the place of supplication before the taslim, and it is also the most appropriate, because as long as a person is in prayer, he is conversing with his Lord, so it is most appropriate that he makes his supplication to his Lord before he concludes.
