TARKEEB NAMAZ
We do not know about what mistakes you committed during salah,
however there are some mistakes which do not break the salah and cause no harm to the
salah. There are some mistakes which make it makrooh and there are some mistakes which
break the salah and there are some which make it necessary to repeat the salah. The salah
of males and females is very much similar, except a few differences, which are stated
here.

2) Keeping the hands in side the clothes at the time of Takbeer-e-Tahreema.
3) In the Qiyam putting the left palm on the chest below the bosoms and putting the right palm on the back of the left hand.
