حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَهْضَمِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ کَانَ لَا يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ فِي شَيْئٍ مِنْ دُعَائِهِ إِلَّا عِنْدَ الِاسْتِسْقَائِ فَإِنَّهُ کَانَ يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّی يُرَی بَيَاضُ إِبْطَيْهِ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 1180
It was narrated from Anas bin Malik that the Prophet SAW did not raise his hands in any of his supplications except when praying for rain (lstisqa), when he raised his hands so high that the whiteness of his armpits could be seen.(Sahih)
