Question:
Abu 'Abdullah says: Shaykh, if I say the takbir of ihram while bent over, but I am closer to standing upright than to bowing, is my prayer valid, or is it a voluntary prayer?
Answer:
It is not permissible. If you are excused for bending over, there is no harm. But if you are not excused, you must be standing upright and stable when you say the takbir of ihram in this case, and then you bend over. Yes.
