Is raising the hands during prayer done with every bowing and rising from it, or only with the bowing of the first rak'ah and rising from it?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is recommended to raise the hands in prayer at four points: the opening Takbir (Takbirat al-), bowing (ruku'), rising from bowing, and when standing up for the third rak'ah. This recommendation is repeated in every rak'ah where bowing and rising from it occur.
