Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If the imam begins the prayer standing, and then an impediment occurs and he sits, do the ma'mum sit?
Answer:
There are hadiths of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding this. He prayed with his Companions twice while sitting. Once he ordered them to sit, and once they prayed behind him while standing. This will be mentioned, if Allah wills.
