Question:
The questioner says: An elderly woman has pain in her feet and finds standing tiring. Is it permissible for her to pray the tarawih prayer standing for part of it and sitting for the rest?
Answer:
Yes, according to her condition. Whatever she is able to pray standing, she prays standing, and whatever is difficult for her, she sits for it. Praise be to Allah, the matter is broad in this regard, even in the obligatory prayer. Even in the obligatory prayer, if standing is difficult for her, she sits and prays while sitting. Yes.
