بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
According to the Hanafi school of jurisprudence one's hands should be kept below navel while Shaafi'i school of jurisprudence confirms that they should be placed on chest, and both practices are narrated from Imaam Ahmad may Allaah have mercy upon him.
وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَالتَّابِعِينَ وَمَنْ بَعْدَهُمْ يَرَوْنَ أَنْ يَضَعَ الرَّجُلُ يَمِينَهُ عَلَى شِمَالِهِ فِي الصَّلاَةِ . وَرَأَى بَعْضُهُمْ أَنْ يَضَعَهُمَا فَوْقَ السُّرَّةِ . وَرَأَى بَعْضُهُمْ أَنْ يَضَعَهُمَا تَحْتَ السُّرَّةِ .
Imaam At-Tirmithi may Allaah have mercy upon him said: 'The people of knowledge from the companions may Allaah be pleased with them their successors and the scholars who came after them are agreed that right hand should be placed over left hand during prayers. Some of them are of the opinion that the hands should be placed above the navel while others are of the opinion that they should be placed below the navel. Both practices are acceptable'.
