Fatwa #1188419 June 2004United Kingdom

Is it better to raise our hands for takbir in salaat after Quran recital, before bowing and before prostration?

Question

Have read bukhari hadeeth no 702 to 706, muslim hadeeth no 759, 762, 792 and abu dawood nos 725,737,743 and 746. These state that the perophet (pbuh) used to raise his hands for the Takbirs in salat. Should we not then incorporate this in our salaat?

Answer

According to the Hanafi Madhab, the hands should only be raised at the beginning of Salaat. This is based on numerous Ahadith ? refer attached.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
