Females tying their hands in Qiyaam
Question
Please elaborate on how a female should tie her hands in Qiyaam during Salaah?
Answer
The correct method of women tying their hands in Salaah is that they will place their hands on their chest. They must place their right palm over the back of their left hand. They will not form a circle with their right hand and neither will they clasp their left hand (like men) but merely place it over the left hand.

عورتوں کے ہاتھ رکھنے سے متعلق روایات دونوں طرح کی ہیں ، بعض میں ’’تحت ثدییها“ اور بعض میں’’على صدرها‘‘ اور ’’علی ثدییها‘‘ کے الفاظ میں بہشتی زیور میں سینہ پر ہاتھ رکھنے کی جو بات لکھی گئی ہے وہ دونوں کو شامل ہے کیوں کہ سینہ کا اطلاق ”علی ٹلبیھا“ اور ”تحت ثدییھا‘‘ دونوں پر ہوتا ہے ۔
