It is generally recommended to raise one's hands and say "ameen" during a du`a. This applies both during the Friday sermon and outside of it [h: since there is nothing that indicates otherwise in the Shafi`i works].

The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "Knowledge is only through study." While some knowledge can be gained from reading or casually listening to lectures, the best means to gain knowledge is through finding a qualified teacher and then setting up a systematic program of learning. Picking up a book or reading an article and trying to figure things out on our own is no substitute for learning from someone who has a direct link to our living tradition.
