The ruling on raising the hands when making du'a' for the deceased

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: May Allah preserve you, is it permissible to raise the hands when making du'a' for the deceased?

Answer:
Yes, there is nothing wrong with it. The default in du'a' is that the hands are raised, except for what is reported of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) making du'a' without raising his hands.
