Is letting the hands hang down or placing the hands below the navel among the recommended practices of prayer for which there is no sin in leaving them?

Question:
Yes, yes, yes. Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some matters in the prayer, such as letting the hands hang down or placing the hands below the navel, and so on. Yes, some matters that occur in the prayer, such as letting the hands hang down or placing them below the navel, and so on. Is doing them, for example, or leaving them considered a deviation from the action of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?

Answer:
This is a deviation from perfection; it is a deviation from perfection. These are recommended practices (sunnah). If they are performed, they make the prayer more complete, and if they are not performed, the prayer is valid, and praise be to Allah. So it is not befitting for us to be strict in these matters, whether grasping the hands or letting the hands hang down, or these are matters that complete the prayer. We should not dispute over them and become hostile, boycotting one another. This is not permissible. As for placing the hands below the navel, there is evidence for this, my brother. There is evidence for this, so it is also from the Sunnah. However, it is better to place them on the chest; this is what is better. Yes.
