وَعَنْهُ أَيْضًا قَالَ: لَمْ يَكُنْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْ دُعَائِهِ (وَفِي لَفْظٍ مِنَ الدُّعَاءِ) إِلَّا فِي الاسْتِسْقَاءِ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى يُرَى بَيَاضُ إِبْطَيْهِ
It is also narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would not raise his hands in any supplication, except in the supplication for rain; in that, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would raise his hands so high that the whiteness of his armpits would be visible.
