صلاة القاعد (عن) النصف من صلاة القائمRuling on Praying in the Habbwah Position (Sitting with Knees Drawn Up)
Hadith 4706
٤٧٠٦ - حدثنا ابن إدريس عن عبيد اللَّه بن عمر عن الزهري عن ابن (عمرو) (١) قال: قدمنا المدينة فأصابنا وباء حتى سبحنا (٢) قعودا فقال النبي ﷺ: "صَلَاةُ الْقَاعِدِ عَلَى النِّصْفِ مِنْ صَلَاةِ القَائِم" (٣).
Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that when we came to Madinah, we were afflicted by illness due to which we began to offer voluntary prayers while sitting. Upon this, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said that the reward for offering prayer while sitting is half of that for offering prayer while standing.
