بَابُ مَنْ قَدَرَ عَلَى الْقِيَامِ بِمَشَقَّةٍ فِي الْفَرْضِ أَوِ النَّفْلِ وَصَلَّى قَاعِدًا فَصَلَاتُهُ عَلَى النِّصْفِ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْقَائِمِChapter on One Able to Stand with Difficulty in Obligatory or Voluntary Prayer, but Prays Seated—His Prayer Is Half That of the Standing
Hadith 2429
اُردوEn
عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ أَنَّ السَّائِبَ سَأَلَ عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَ: إِنِّي لَا أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ إِلَّا جَالِسًا، فَكَيْفَ تَرَيْنَ؟ قَالَتْ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ((صَلَاةُ الرَّجُلِ جَالِسًا مِثْلُ نِصْفِ صَلَاتِهِ قَائِمًا))
Saib asked Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that I am only able to perform prayer while sitting; what is your opinion about this? She said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: A man's prayer performed while sitting is half of that performed while standing, that is, in terms of reward and merit.
