Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Among her questions, O Shaykh, she asks: Is it permissible for a woman to pray while sitting, without reciting aloud, and without any movement, if she is ill?

Answer:
Yes, just like a man. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
offer prayer in standing condition; if you are unable to do so, then in sitting conditionصل قائمًا فإن لم تستطع فقاعدًا
Sunan Abi Dawud 952Sahih (Al-Albani)
If you are unable due to illness or old age, pray sitting down, and praise be to Allah, just like a man.

The presenter: May Allah reward you.
