Answer:
(Fatwa: 2223/1717=H/1429)
Holding hand below naaf (navel) in salah is proved form authentic traditions:
ان علیا قال: السنۃ وضع الکف علی الکف فی الصلاۃ تحت السرۃ (رواہ ابو داود فی نسخۃ ابن الاعرابی، والحدیث حسن)
وعن ابی ھریرۃ قال: اخذ الکف علی الکف فی الصلاۃ تحت السرۃ (اعلاء السنن 2:166-167)
For details see: اعلاء السنن 2:168
Allah (Subhana Wa Ta’ala) knows Best
