Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is raising the hands in supplication after every voluntary prayer, whether it is a regular voluntary prayer or otherwise, considered a recommended practice or a religious innovation?

The Shaykh:
Yes.

The questioner:
Is raising the hands in supplication after every voluntary prayer, whether it is a regular voluntary prayer or otherwise, considered part of the recommended practice or a religious innovation?

The Shaykh:
Raising the hands after the regular voluntary prayer is permissible; raising the hands after a voluntary prayer is permissible, whether it is a regular voluntary prayer or not. However, after the obligatory prayer, no; after the obligatory prayer, you do not raise your hands.
