The Ruling on Urinating While Standing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on urinating while standing for men?

Answer:
It is permissible when there is a need, and disliked when there is no need. It is permissible for a person to urinate while standing if there is a need, such as if the place is narrow and sitting would make it narrow, or if the person is ill and cannot sit due to stiff knees or a disease. In such cases, it is permissible to urinate while standing. However, if there is no need, he should urinate while sitting. Yes.
