It was narrated from Malik bin Al-Huwairith that he saw the Prophet of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم raise his hands when he started to pray, and he narrated a similar report and added: “When he bowed he did likewise, and when he raised his head from bowing he did likewise, and when he raised his head from prostration he did likewise.” (Sahih).
