During salaat, I raise my hands to my shoulders at the first part of the prayer where you say "Allahu akbar". I also raise after Fatiha and going into ruku, and then I raise them when standing up after ruku while saying "Sami allahu liman hamidah." Am I doing this correctly? Are there any other times I should be doing this?
“I saw the Prophet's (sal-Allaahu 'alayhi was-Salam) opening takbeer in prayer; he raised his hands when he said “Allaahu akbar” until he held them parallel to his shoulders...” and in one report " & “When Allaah's Messenger (sal-Allaahu 'alayhi was-Salam) stood from the second rak‘ah, he said,‘Allaahu akbar' and raised his hands.”
Jaa-Ro-Nee-Mo!!!
"they ask you when will the help of Allah (swt) come! Certainly Allah (Swt) help is always near"
Not another Raful-Yadayn thread!!! oh: *runs away!!!*
Anyways, back on topic. Yeah that's correct and you also do it after you get up from the first Tashahhud and before you commence the third Rak'ah.
However, some people do not follow this practice and there's evidence to argue for it both ways - so to those who feel the urge to post and spark off another debate in this thread... please don't! :grumbling
RasoolAllah (sal allah hu aleyhi wasalam) prayed like that, and he start doin it when the munafiqs of the quraish would pray with the muslims, but they would hide under their armpits idols. so the Prophet (sal Allah hu aleyhi wasalam) start raisin his hands before ruku & after, so that people would do it as well and therefore if there were any idols under peoples armpits they would drop and die
like their is always a reason behind why he did somethin
so if you dont do it, then nothing wrong, and if you do do it then nothin is wrong
actions are based upon intentions . . .
Jaa-Ro-Nee-Mo!!!

Thanks guys. jzcasejz, I didn't mean to start an argument. I don't even know what "Raful-Yadayn" is. I've seen arguments on other boards about topics, so I really don't want to be the cause of one. Please forgive me bro.

Akhi forgive me, you've misunderstood what I've said. I wasn't talking about you lol, it's just that previously yeah, we had ALOT of Raful-Yadayn threads in the past and the people on this forum kept on arguing whether or not it's a Sunnah and both sides weren't getting anywhere - hence why I was saying not to let this thread turn into one of those debates. Lol, I wasn't directing it towards you.
And besides, it's good you made this thread and was asking for help since knowledge is the cure for ignorance. And InshaAllaah feel free to ask more questions in the future if you need help with anything. Once again, sorry Brother, I wasn't talking to you, just was a message to the potential posters to think twice before they spark up another heated Fiqh debate...
