The ruling on placing the right hand over the left after rising from bowing
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Is there any established evidence from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he placed his right hand over his left after rising from bowing?
Al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) narrated from Sahl ibn Sa'd (may Allah have mercy on him), who said: (The people were instructed to place a man's right hand or right palm over his left forearm in prayer) This is how it came in Sahih al-Bukhari. Prostration is excluded from this, because the hands are on the ground; sitting is excluded, because the hands are on the thighs; and bowing is excluded, because the hands are on the knees. What remains is standing before bowing and after it, and this is the evidence.
