Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The prohibition from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is regarding putting on shoes while standing if that causes harm to the person putting them on. But if there is no harm, and we see some of the brothers, when they want to put on their shoes, even easy ones, sitting down and saying this is the Sunnah. Is his statement and action correct?

Answer:
If he applies the Sunnah, that is good, provided that it does not result in harming others or blocking the path or the like. As for if he is able to implement the Sunnah and puts on his shoes while sitting, there is no harm, provided that it does not result in harming others.
