English

Abdullah ibn Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: "I was informed that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'The prayer of a man while sitting is half the prayer.' So I went to him and found him praying while sitting. I placed my hand on his head, and he said: 'What is the matter, O Abdullah ibn Amr?' I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I was told that you said: The prayer of a man while sitting is half the prayer, yet you are praying while sitting?' He said: 'Yes, but I am not like any of you.'"
