Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on placing the hands in prayer? And is it true that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) both placed his hands and let them hang down during his lifetime?

Answer:
What is established from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is that he placed his left elbow with his right palm and put them on his chest. This is what is established from him (peace and blessings be upon him), and this is the sunnah (recommended practice). Yes.
