Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 103/101/M=1/1438)

One should look at his feet during ruku and on lap during tashahhud.

(وآدابها) نظره إلى موضع سجوده حال القيام وإلى ظهر قدميه حالة الركوع وإلى ارنبته حالة السجود وإلى حجره حالة القعود وعند التسليمة الأولى إلى منكبه الأيمن وعند الثانية إلى منكبه الأيسر (هنديه 1/172) (بدائع 1/215)

Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) knows Best
