بَابُ فَضْلِ صَلَاةِ الْقَائِمِ عَلَى صَلَاةِ الْقَاعِدِ
Virtue of standing in prayer over sitting
Hadith 306
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيل بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ ، عَنْ مَوْلًى لِعَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ أَوْ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " صَلَاةُ أَحَدِكُمْ وَهُوَ قَاعِدٌ مِثْلُ نِصْفِ صَلَاتِهِ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The reward for offering prayer while sitting is half of that of offering it while standing."
Hadith 307
وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : لَمَّا قَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ نَالَنَا وَبَاءٌ مِنْ وَعْكِهَا شَدِيدٌ ، فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَهُمْ يُصَلُّونَ فِي سُبْحَتِهِمْ قُعُودًا ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " صَلَاةُ الْقَاعِدِ مِثْلُ نِصْفِ صَلَاةِ الْقَائِمِ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) that when we came to Madinah, the epidemic fever became very severe for us. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to the people and they were performing voluntary prayers while sitting. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever prays while sitting will receive half the reward of the one who prays standing."
