Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some scholars have said that one of the causes for the acceptance of supplication is raising the hands. He says: I have heard your fatwa that one should not raise the hands during supplication.
Answer:
It is not the case that you raise your hands in every supplication. It is not the case that you raise your hands in every supplication. Sometimes you raise them, and sometimes you do not. It is reported that they are raised after the obligatory prayer. It is reported that they are raised after the adhan. One supplicates, but he does not raise his hands. We follow the evidence. Where it is reported that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his hands with the supplication, we raise our hands. Yes. In the khutbah, the Friday khutbah, he supplicates and does not raise his hands. It is not permissible; this is an innovation. Yes. Honorable Shaykh. If he supplicates for rain in the Friday khutbah, he raises his hands. Yes.
