When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat to say the tashahhud, he placed his left hand on his left thigh and pointed with his forefinger, and his gaze did not go beyond he finger with which he was pointing. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1275)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ «كَانَ إِذَا قَعَدَ فِي التَّشَهُّدِ وَضْعَ كَفَّهُ الْيُسْرَى عَلَى فَخِذِهِ الْيُسْرَى وَأَشَارَ بِالسَّبَّابَةِ لَا يُجَاوِزُ بَصَرُهُ إِشَارَتَهُ»

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ used to place his left hand on his left thigh and his right hand on his right thigh, and he would point with his index finger, without moving it, in the direction of his gaze."
«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا تَشَهَّدَ وَضَعَ يَدَهُ الْيُسْرَى عَلَى فَخِذِهِ الْيُسْرَى وَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى عَلَى فَخِذِهِ الْيُمْنَى وَأَشَارَ بِأُصْبُعِهِ السَّبَّابَةِ لَا يُجَاوِزُ بَصَرُهُ إِشَارَتَهُ»

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا جَلَسَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ وَضَعَ كَفَّهُ الْيُسْرَى عَلَى فَخِذِهِ الْيُسْرَى وَكَفَّهُ الْيُمْنَى عَلَى فَخِذِهِ الْيُمْنَى وَأَشَارَ بِأُصْبُعِهِ السَّبَابَةِ لَا يُجَاوِزُ بَصَرُهُ إِشَارَتَهُ
