  • Saying “Li Rabi al-Hamd” after Rising from Rukoo’ Date: 16-3-2023

    As-salamu ‘alaykum. I understand that saying “rabbana laka l-hamd” is fard after rising from ruku‘ according to some scholars.

    Does intention to break the salah, or wavering on whether to break the salah, break the salah? Specifically in the Maliki and Hanafi schools.
