Musnad Abi Ya'la 4941 — Sayyiduna al-Sa'ib asked Sayyidah Aishah: I
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْجَعْدِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ الْمُهَاجِرِ ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ ، أَنَّ السَّائِبَ ، سَأَلَ عَائِشَةَ ، فَقَالَ : إِنِّي قَدْ كَبِرْتُ ، وَإِنِّي لَا أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ إِلَّا جَالِسًا ، فَكَيْفَ تَرَيْنَ ؟ فَقَالَتْ : إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ، أَوْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : صَلَاةُ الْجَالِسِ عَلَى النِّصْفِ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ قَائِمًا .
It is narrated from Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sayyiduna al-Sa'ib (may Allah be pleased with him) asked Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her): "I have grown old and now I am only able to pray sitting; so what is your view about this?" She replied: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say (or (the narrator is unsure whether) she said: the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said): "The prayer of one who sits is (in reward) half of his prayer standing."
