What Is the Ruling of Remaining Motionless Between the Integrals of the Prayer?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Seekersguidance.org

Question:

What is the ruling of remaining motionless between the integrals of the prayer? What is meant by ‘motionless?’

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful and Compassionate

Remaining still (motionless as you referred to it) in the integrals of the prayer is necessary. Remaining still in the standing position after the bowing and the sitting position between the two prostrations is an emphasized sunna. [Shaykhi Zada, Majma’u al-Anhur]

What is meant by remaining motionless is a pause of stillness for the length of time it takes to say SubhanAllah, once. The purpose of the pause is to ensure the completion of the integrals. [Ibid.]

I hope this helps,
Allah knows best.
