Sunan Abi Dawud 1490 (Book 8, Hadith 75) #21782
The Proper Way of Making Supplication

SUMMARY: Supplication should be made with hands raised and palms facing the face.

In another version Ibn 'Abbas said: Earnest supplication should be made like this: he raised his hand and made his palms in the direction of his face.
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَعْبَدِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ قَالَ فِيهِ وَالاِبْتِهَالُ هَكَذَا وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ وَجَعَلَ ظُهُورَهُمَا مِمَّا يَلِي وَجْهَهُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the proper way to make supplications or du’as. It is narrated by Ibn ‘Abbas that when making a du’a, one should raise their hands and direct their palms towards their face. This shows humility and sincerity in asking for help from Allah. It also shows that we are not ashamed to ask for help from Allah as He is our Creator and knows what we need even before we ask Him for it. We must remember to always be humble when making a du’a as this will increase our chances of having it answered by Allah.
