The Prophet (ﷺ) used to make a sign during prayer.
Sunan Abi Dawud Book 2, Hadith 554
← Previous Hadith Clapping by women means that one should strike her left hand with the two fingers of her right hand.

Sunan Abi Dawud Book 2, Hadith 553 Next Hadith → 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.)
