ANSWER:

You can put it down if you’re not reciting anything, however, instead of sitting idle you should say the salutations on Prophet salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam and even make dua if the imam is slow in his first tashahhud and keep making duas until the imam says salam to his left in the last tashahhud.

QUESTION: My question is that when I’ve completed tashahhud and not reciting anything, do I still keep my finger moving and looking at it till the imam says salam or do I put it down and look at the place of prostration?
