The Places of Raising the Hands in Prayer

Question:
The brother Abdulaziz asks about the places of the takbirs where the Muslim raises his hands in prayer, and whether they are a recommended practice (sunnah) or obligatory?

Answer:
The takbir, the takbir of ihram, is a pillar of the prayer; it is not valid, nor does it become established, except with it. As for the remaining takbirs during the transitions, they are obligatory among the obligations of the prayer. As for raising the hands at the takbir, it is raised in four places, or three places. The first place is at the takbir of ihram, the second place is at the bowing (ruku'), the third place is at rising from the bowing. This is established in the hadiths. The fourth place is when one stands up from the first tashahhud. Yes.
