Assalamu alaykum,

Br. Mohammed Khan, I am surprised to learn the Hanafi opinion regarding du`a during the khutbah, because what is normally observed in countries where Hanafi school is practiced by the masses is contrary to what you have said. Can you please provide a reference for this? Jazak Allahu khayran.

Following on from Moaz and Maryam:

In the Hanafi school when the Imam makes du’a during the khutbah it is disliked to raise the hands. It’s the opposite in Shafi’i.

However generally in Hanafi, when you make du’a outside of the Friday khutbah you do it with hands raised and wipe the face afterwards.

Yes, and I would like to expand on Sister Maryam’s question. Is it also preferred to wipe oneselves face after completion of the dua?

In Malaysia, the muadhan usually makes a supplication aloud during this break between the two khutbahs and the members of the congregation raise their hands and say amin.

follow up question…Is it preferred for the attendees of the khutbah to raise their hands when the khateeb makes the dua, or for them to keep their hands down?
