In salah, when I do the “tahiyat”, instead of saying: “Ashadu anna Muhammadur-rasulullah”, I say: “Ashadu anna Muhammadon-abduhu wa rasulullah/rasuluhu (one of these two)”. I also ALWAYS say: “Sallalahu alayhi wassallaam” after “rasulullah/rasuluhu” is being mentioned in the tahiyat. I also ask the SAME du’a after every salah (in English). Is this bid’ah?

Prayer

22 Dec

Saying salutation alone after saying this is not part of the Sunnah as we were not taught to say it.

Continuation of last topic: “raising hands after Salaah” You said raising hands is bidaah. So, do you suggest that I should keep my hands on my knees while doing the Zikr?

Prayer

Keep them wherever you want.
