In Which Hand Should the Khateeb hold the Staff?

Q: Salaah-299: Should the Khateeb (person delivering the Khutbah) hold the staff in his right or left hand?

Answer: Both ways are permissible and a person may do as it suits him. If he has no (script of the) Khutbah to hold, it is best to hold the staff in the right hand and if he does have one, he should hold that in his right hand and the staff in the left hand.
