The Prophet ﷺ used to make a sign during prayer.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يُشِيرُ فِي الصَّلاَةِ  

The Prophet ﷺ said: Saying Tasbih applies to men during prayer and clapping applies to women. Anyone who makes a sign during his prayer, a sign which is intelligible by implication, should repeat it (i.e. his prayer). (AbuDawud commented on the Hadith saying, this is a result of confusion.)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ التَّسْبِيحُ لِلرِّجَالِ يَعْنِي فِي الصَّلاَةِ وَالتَّصْفِيقُ لِلنِّسَاءِ مَنْ أَشَارَ فِي صَلاَتِهِ إِشَارَةً تُفْهَمُ عَنْهُ فَلْيَعُدْ لَهَا يَعْنِي الصَّلاَةَ
