The Ruling on Urinating While Standing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: What is the ruling on urinating while standing?

Answer:
It is permissible to urinate when there is a need, if one is unable to sit or if the ground is dirty. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) urinated while standing on some occasions out of necessity, so it is permissible to urinate while standing for the sake of necessity.
