Keeping the gaze fixed to the place of sajdah when making takbeer-e-tahreemah
Question
When starting Salaah i.e. saying the Takbeer tahrima and raising the hands, at that time should the eyes be already towards the place of Sajdah or should the eyes be facing straight and after folding the hands then moved towards the place of Sajdah?
Answer
The gaze will be fixed to the place of sajdah.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
