Touching the ears during takbeer is not permissible as it’s an innovation.

QUESTION: Sheikh, I read on IslāmQa (Hanafī Fiqh) that it is allowed to touch the ears during Takbīr to ensure the Sunnāh of having hands near ears is done properly. Is this ruled out as a Bidd’āh or this exception is accepted?
