Assalam eu alaikum,

Dear brother Adly,

I have read your answer(below)to Ibrar's question but i am confused as i have in different places and on the other websites found that Tushaad ends before Darood(Salam)and one should only hold the finger upright untill then. How i am going to know which source is right and where can i get more information, i.e. Tufseer ibn Kaseer or els where.
thanks for your help
May Allah reward you(ameen)
Wassalam.

As Salaamu Alaikoum,
Praise be to Allah.
In regards to the finger, continue to keep it raised even when the Imam has not yet finished. As you wait for the Imam to finish you can recite other Duaa's asking for Allahs forgiveness or blessings until the Imam finishes.

But the finger should remain raised until the giving of salaams...

AND ALLAH KNOWS BEST

Shaykh Muhammad Adly

As Salaamu Alaikoum,

Praise be to Allah.

In regards to where do you take your information from about raising the finger in salat.. the answer is from the same source that you take your information from concerning ANYTHING in Islam... THE QURAN AND SUNNAH.

Here is the evidence from the Sunnah in regards to what to do with your finger. Also, we encourage you to join the website and participate in the classes taught so you can better learn the basics of your religion. Asking questions is good, but to actively participate in a classroom setting and learn is much better.

Be sure to go to the website and register to join the Voicechat room and check the schedule for the times of the classes.

The Prophet(saw) would sit during tashahud with finger raised all the way till the end of his supplication:

One should point with one's right index finger, bending it a little, until one says the salaams at the end of the prayer. Reported Numair al-Khaza'i, "I saw the Messenger of Allah sitting in the prayer with his forearm along his right thigh. His index finger was raised, curved (or bent) a little, and he was supplicating." [This is related by Ahmad, Abu Dawud, an-Nasa'i, Ibn Majah and Ibn Khuzaimah with a good chain].

AND ALLAH KNOWS BEST
