Raising the hands in prayer

Question: Does the one praying raise his hands at the takbirs of transition in the prayer? And if not in all of them, at which ones is the raising of the hands done at the takbir? For example, at the rising from bowing and at the prostration?

Answer: Yes, what is established,Raising the hands at the takbirs in the prayer is: is at the takbir of ihram, at the takbir of bowing, and at the rising from bowing. These are the three places where the raising of the hands is established.
There is a fourth place that some scholars hold, which is at the rising from the first tashahhud. These are the places where the hands are raised at the takbir in the prayer.
As for anything other than these, the hands are not raised in them.

Answer: It is from the Sunnah to place the right palm over the left palm and clasp them on the chest while standing in the prayer. This is established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), whether before the bowing or after it. It is recommended to clasp one’s hands and place them on the chest while standing in the prayer, whether before the bowing or after it, because both are standing in the prayer. It is established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that when he stood in the prayer, he did this,And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
offer your prayers in the way you saw me offering my prayersصلوا كما رأيتموني أصلي
Sahih al-Bukhari 6008
, and this is from the established Sunnahs of actions in the prayer.
