Musnad Abi Ya'la 2987 — the Prophet ﷺ did not raise his hands in any
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، وَعَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - كَانَ لَا يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنَ الدُّعَاءِ إِلَّا فِي الِاسْتِسْقَاءِ حَتَّى يُرَى بَيَاضُ إِبْطَيْهِ ، غَيْرَ أَنَّ عَبْدَ الْأَعْلَى ، قَالَ : حَتَّى يُرَى بَيَاضُ إِبْطَيْهِ أَوْ بَيَاضُ إِبْطِهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not raise his hands in any supplication except in the prayer for rain (istisqa'); in it he (peace and blessings be upon him) would raise his hands so high that the whiteness of his armpits could be seen. However, Abd al-A'la (may Allah have mercy on him) said in his narration: "Until the whiteness of both his (peace and blessings be upon him) armpits, or the whiteness of one of his (peace and blessings be upon him) armpits, could be seen."
