The ruling on gesturing during prayer to forbid what is wrong

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to gesture during prayer to forbid what is wrong, in case the person does not realize the prohibition after finishing?

Answer:
Forbidding what is wrong is not done during the prayer. One forbids what is wrong after the taslim or before the prayer. Yes.
