Is standing obligatory in voluntary prayers?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : He works for half the doubled reward.

The Shaykh : No, this is in the benefit.

The questioner : So he established for him half the tools.

The Shaykh : Where is this from the voluntary?

The questioner : Yes, this is for free.

The Shaykh : Standing is not obligatory in voluntary prayers. In order to encourage people to perform voluntary prayers and so that they do not find them burdensome or difficult, a dispensation was granted to them, just as a dispensation was granted to pray on a mount in order to lighten the burden and so that it does not become difficult for them.
