Sleeping on the stomach when necessary

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A brother says to me, Honorable Shaykh, he is fifteen years old, and he has pain in his back, so he sleeps on his stomach.

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that; it is permissible to sleep on the stomach when necessary. He sleeps on the side, or on the stomach, or on the back, whichever is more comfortable for him. Praise be to Allah. Yes.
