The ruling on the prayer of a sick person by moving his finger or his eye

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, regarding the prayer of a sick person whose illness has become severe, does he pray by moving his finger or his eye? Is there a basis for this? And how does he pray? By his finger?

Answer:
There is no basis for it, and no one has said it. This is only among the common people. As for praying by his eye, some jurists have said this. The correct view is that if he is unable to indicate with his head, then nothing is obligatory upon him.
