Question:
The questioner says: Is it permissible for me to pray the recommended prayers while sitting? I am a housewife, I have children, and I feel lazy about the recommended prayers due to fatigue.
Answer:
There is no harm in a Muslim praying the voluntary prayers while sitting, even if he is healthy. It is permissible to pray while sitting in the voluntary prayers. As for the obligatory prayers, no; if he is able, he prays standing. As for the night prayer, the Duha prayer, and the regular voluntary prayers, it is permissible to pray them while sitting, even if he is healthy. And if he has laziness or weakness and prays them while sitting, there is no harm. Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
