Raising the Hands While Standing
What is the ruling on raising the hands in prayer when standing up from the first sitting to complete the three or four-unit prayer?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is not recommended to raise the hands during prayer except for the opening Takbir, and God knows best.
