When beginning salaat, men raise both hands. Tips of thumbs touch earlobes. Palms must be turned towards the Qibla. Saying of Allahu Akbar (Takbir) begins as hands leave ears and finished as they are folded under the navel. NOTE: Women raise their both hands as high as their shoulders and say the takbir of beginning. Then they put their hands on their chest.

There are seven conditions for a salaat to be corrected.

                1-Niyyat (intention) 

                2-Tahrima (To say Allah Akbar)

                3-Qiyam (Standing)

                4-Qiraat (Recitation of Quran by mouth gently)

                5-Ruku (To bow) 

                6-Sajda (Prostration) 

                7-Qa'da-i- Akhira (Last sitting)
