Assalaamu 'Alaikoem wa Rahmatullah,

1. When you reach LA ILAHA you make a ring and raise
your index finger and at ILL ALLAH you put it down
and hold the ring with the lowered stretched index
finger until the end of salaah.

2. Some say the same as above but when saying ILL
ALLAH you must put your hand back in original position
back on your thigh.

3. Some say just keep your hand on your thigh and
raise the index finger without making a circle at
LA ILAHA and put it down at ILL ALLAH.

Can some knowledgeable brothers make clear which of the three is the most agreed among the Ahnaf Shuyookh ?

JazakumAllah khayran

Ibn Abedin quotes the difference of opinions among the Ulamas, and then concludes supporting the first option.
But there is a little change. You make a ring when you reach Shahada i.e. Ashhadu, then raise your finger upon reaching LA ILAHA and at ILL ALLAH you put it down and hold the ring with the lowered stretched index finger until the end of salaah.

And Allah knows best.
