Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a sick person is sitting on a chair in the mosque as a ma'mum, what is the criterion regarding the position of the chair? Should the front of the chair be aligned with the feet of the ma'mums, or should it be placed behind them?

Answer:
This is an unnecessary complication. This is an exceptional case. The chair is placed in whatever position is comfortable for the person who needs it. It is placed for his comfort, and no attention is paid to whether it is in front or behind, and we do not complicate these matters. Yes. This is an exceptional case. Yes.
