Forgetting to raise the hands at the takbir of ihram

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A person in prayer said the takbir of ihram, but he did not raise his hands, because he forgot to raise them. Is there anything required of him in that?

Answer:
No, raising the hands is a recommended practice (sunnah), it is not obligatory. Yes.
