3565. Narrated Anas رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ did not use to raise his hands in his invocations except in the Istisqā (i.e., invoking Allāh for the rain) in which he used to raise his hands so high that one could see the whiteness of his armpits. [Note: It may be that Anas رضي الله عنه did not see the Prophet (as) raising his hands but it has been narrated that the Prophet (as) used to raise his hands for invocations other than Istisqā . [See Vol. 2, Hadīth No. 1751, 1752 and Vol. 5 and Hadīth No. 4323].
