Question :

Is it permissible for a sick person to pray while sitting on a chair?


The Answer :

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds


It is permissible for a sick person, who is unable to stand up, to offer prayer while sitting on a chair. If he/she was unable to prostrate while on the chair, then he/she should pray while sitting on the ground, but if he/she was neither able to bow (Roku),nor to prostrate, then he can do them while sitting on the chair. And Allah Knows Best.
