The Permissibility of Raising the Hands in Supplication
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Shaykh, is it prescribed to raise the hands in the supplication for travel, when entering the home, and when mounting a riding animal?
Answer:
As for travel, it is reported that a man extends his hands while traveling, disheveled and dusty, extending his hands and saying, "O my Lord, O my Lord." Yes. The default is that the hands are raised in supplication, because this is among the causes of acceptance, except where it is reported that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) made a supplication without raising his hands. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh
