The prayer of one who is able to stand but unable to bow or prostrate
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The author (may Allah have mercy on him) said: “If he is able to stand and sit but not to bow or prostrate, he indicates his bowing while standing and his prostration while sitting.” Is there not hardship for the one praying in such an action?
The Shaykh:
No, this is very easy for the one praying. If he is able to stand but not able to bow, he says “Ameen” while standing, because standing is the standing of the rak'ah, and for the bowing, saying “Ameen” while standing is sufficient. For the prostration, he sits and says “Ameen” while sitting. Yes.
The questioner:
The Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Ah.
The Shaykh:
It is easy for him to stand and easy for him to sit; what is difficult for him is only the bowing and the prostration, so the remaining pillars are not dropped from him. Mm.
