Raising the Finger in the Sitting Between the Two Prostrations
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is raising the finger and pointing with it specific to the tashahhud, or is it general for all sitting, meaning in the tashahhud and the sitting between the two prostrations?
The Shaykh:
We have only known that this is done in the tashahhud, but some people have started bringing up opinions that I do not know where they get them from, that one raises the finger between the two prostrations. We have not known this, and it is not mentioned in what we know.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.
The Shaykh:
If it is mentioned, it is an anomalous opinion, and it is of no account.
