Question:
His other question says: Some scholars say that moving the index finger between the two prostrations is a recommended practice (sunnah). Should one act on this?
Answer:
We have not known of this, nor have we seen any scholar act upon it. So one does not perform this action. This is only in the tashahhud; it is reported in the first and last tashahhud. As for between the two prostrations, we do not know of anyone who says this. And if there is a statement to that effect, it is anomalous (shadhdh). Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
