The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : ... Does he respond every time, every day?
The Shaykh : That is, he asks, saying: What if we suppose that many people pass by the one praying, and if he continued to respond to them with gestures, the actions would become excessive? In that case, no, he does not raise [his hand]; he raises it to a degree that does not invalidate the prayer. Yes, Yahya.
