Narrated'Abdullah bin Buraida:

'Imran bin Husain had piles. Once Abu Ma mar narrated from 'Imran bin Husain had said, "I asked the Prophet ﷺ about the prayer of a person while sitting. He said, 'It is better for one to pray standing;
and whoever prays sitting gets half the reward of that who prays while standing;
and whoever prays while Lying gets half the reward of that who prays while sitting.' "

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنٌ الْمُعَلِّمُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، أَنَّ عِمْرَانَ بْنَ حُصَيْنٍ ـ وَكَانَ رَجُلاً مَبْسُورًا ـ وَقَالَ أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ مَرَّةً عَنْ عِمْرَانَ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنْ صَلاَةِ الرَّجُلِ وَهْوَ قَاعِدٌ فَقَالَ " مَنْ صَلَّى قَائِمًا فَهْوَ أَفْضَلُ، وَمَنْ صَلَّى قَاعِدًا فَلَهُ نِصْفُ أَجْرِ الْقَائِمِ، وَمَنْ صَلَّى نَائِمًا فَلَهُ نِصْفُ أَجْرِ الْقَاعِدِ ". قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ نَائِمًا عِنْدِي مُضْطَجِعًا هَا هُنَا.
