The ruling on praying the obligatory prayer sitting down for fear of missing the time

Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: Shaykh Salih, we work in marine fishing and we go out fishing in a small boat from early morning until close to the time of Maghrib. Due to the narrowness of the space and the roughness of the sea, we are sometimes forced to pray the obligatory prayer sitting down. So, is it better for us to pray the Dhuhr and 'Asr prayers, each in its own time, sitting down, or should we delay the Dhuhr and 'Asr prayers?

Answer:
If you are able to pray while sitting, there is no harm in doing so due to the excuse. If you are able to pray while sitting on the boat, it is obligatory for you to do so. If you are sitting because you are unable to stand, then standing is dropped from you, because this is like the state of a sick person: a sick person prays standing, and if he cannot, he prays sitting, and if he cannot, he prays on his side. And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) said: Yes.
