Hadith 1236
نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاءِ بْنِ كُرَيْبٍ ، نَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ الْمُكْتِبُ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ ، قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ صَلاةِ الرَّجُلِ قَاعِدًا ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " صَلاةُ الْقَائِمِ أَفْضَلُ وَصَلاةُ الْقَاعِدِ عَلَى النِّصْفِ مِنْ صَلاةِ الْقَائِمِ "
Sayyiduna Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that I asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) about a man praying while sitting, so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Praying while standing is superior, and the reward of the one who prays while sitting is half of the reward of the one who prays while standing."
