Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 73/73=M)

It is Sunnah to put the hands below navels during salah and this is proved by several traditions. In Abu Dawood it is narrated by Hazrat Ali (رضی اللہ عنہ): السنۃ وضع الکف علی الکف فی الصلاۃ تحت السرۃ

Hazrat Alqamah bin Waail bin Hajar narrates from his father:

رأیت النبی صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم وضع یمینہ علی شمالہ فی الصلاۃ تحت السرۃ، أخرجہ ابن أبی شیبۃ ورجالہ ثقات، وقال الشیخ قاسم بن قطلوبغا الحنفی: ان ھذا سند جید اھ شرح الترمذی لأبی الطیب رحمہ اللہ (اعلاء السنن: 2/166،171)
