The Book of Prayer

ENGLISH

Narrated 'Imran bin Husain (RA):

I suffered from piles. So I asked the Prophet (ﷺ) about the prayers. He said: "Pray standing; and if you are unable, (pray) sitting; and if you are unable, (pray) lying on your side." [Reported by al-Bukhari].

ARABIC

وَعَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ رَضِيَ اَللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ: { كَانَتْ بِي بَوَاسِيرُ, فَسَأَلْتُ اَلنَّبِيَّ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏-عَنْ اَلصَّلَاةِ؟ فَقَالَ:

صَلِّ قَائِمًا, فَإِنْ لَمْ تَسْتَطِعْ فَقَاعِدًا, فَإِنْ لَمْ تَسْتَطِعْ فَعَلَى جَنْبٍ
