1413. It was narrated from Sufyān bin Ḥuṣayn that Bishr bin Marwān raised his hands on Friday on the Minbar, and 'Umārah bin Ruwaibah condemned him and said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ did no more than this," and he pointed with his forefinger. (Sahīh)
1412 - أَخْبَرَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ، أَنَّ بِشْرَ بْنَ مَرْوَانَ، رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ، فَسَبَّهُ عُمَارَةُ بْنُ رُوَيْبَةَ الثَّقَفِيُّ، وَقَالَ: «مَا زَادَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى هَذَا»، وَأَشَارَ بِإِصْبَعِهِ السَّبَّابَةِ

The Friday sermon is a worship. Dignity is its requisite. The Khatib ought not to indulge in needless movements. Raising both hands is contrary to dignity. Therefore, it is not appropriate. In the sermon, gesticulation with one's hand or finger is enough. Some people have understood it to mean supplicating by lifting two hands. But, in some narrations there is a description of the Prophet's ﷺ supplicating by raising the hands, during the Khuṭbah, for rain. It could be stated that it should not be made a routine. If the hands are lifted for a significant matter once in a while, there is no harm in it.
