Sayyiduna Malik bin Huwairith (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to raise his hands at the beginning of the prayer, when going into bowing (ruku‘), and when raising his head from bowing. Ibn Mubashshir (may Allah have mercy on him) narrated these words: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to raise his hands at the beginning of the prayer, when he was about to go into bowing, and when he raised his head from bowing. Abu ‘Awanah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), whenever he said the takbir, went into bowing, raised his head from bowing, and recited“Sami‘ Allahu liman hamidah,”would raise both hands up to the shoulders.
