Question:
All right, Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: As for the sick person, if he prays the obligatory prayers sitting down because the doctor ordered him to do so, does he receive the reward of the one who stands?
Answer:
Yes, if he sits in prayer because of the excuse of illness or the doctor’s advice, and standing would affect him, then he has the reward of the one who stands, because he did not leave standing except for an excuse, so he has the reward of the one who stands in that. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
