WOMEN'S PRAYER POSITIONS
Women's prayer positions are the same as those for men, except
for the following variations:
A woman folds her hands on her breast, not on or under her
navel. (See illustration, page 104.)
In assuming the bending position a woman is to bend only until
her hands reach her knees, touching them gently. At the same
time, her elbows should be in close contact with her sides.

In the prostrating position a woman is to keep her abdomen in
contact with her thighs, and her elbows resting on her thighs. (See
illustration, page 128.)
