The elderly woman's hands, clasped in prayer, symbolize a moment of reverence during the ritual of "cutting rampies". In Islamic tradition, a mother's prayer is particularly revered and encouraged, highlighting the significance of this gesture.

The act of raising hands with open palms during prayer is a widespread practice that embodies humility, submission, and a request for divine mercy and blessings. This gesture reflects a deep cultural significance, embodying both gratitude and a connection to tradition. The act serves not only as a personal expression of faith but also as a communal acknowledgment of the importance of the ceremony within the community.
