Should hands be raised with the additional takbeers during Eid prayer?

Chapter on the Two Eid Prayers

Al-Mughni

Book of Friday Prayer

Book 4 · Issue 9 · Bab 2

Open in Qurani

Primary text

The hands must be raised with every takbeer, including the opening *Takbirat al-Ihram*. This is the position of 'Ata', Al-Awza'i, Abu Hanifa, and Al-Shafi'i, supported by hadith stating the Prophet ﷺ raised his hands with the takbeer. This is analogous to the opening takbeer and differs from the takbeers during prostration.

Supporting text

Malik and Al-Thawri held that hands should not be raised for takbeers other than the opening one, likening them to the takbeers during prostration.
