Is interlacing the fingers after and before prayer forbidden?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is interlacing the fingers after and before prayer considered a forbidden matter?

Answer:
Interlacing the fingers is not permissible in two cases: if one is waiting for the prayer, and the second case is if one is in the prayer itself. As for interlacing the fingers after the prayer, there is no harm in it; the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did it.
