Question:
What is the stronger position regarding the placement of the hands in prayer: are they on the chest or on the navel?
Answer:
Answer: The stronger position is that they are above the navel. There is a narration that it is also in a hadith that they are below the navel. So placing the hands is either below the navel, which is this school of thought, or above the navel, which is the correct one. As for placing them on the chest, no hadith has been established for it. This is what the Shaykh al-Islam preferred in his commentary on al-Umdah.
