Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has narrated from âAbd Allah ibn âAmir from Ali ibn Mahziyar from Fadalah from Aban from Zurarah who has said the following: âI once asked abu Jaâfar (a.s.), about a man who performs Salah (prayer) in a sitting position. He recites Surah (chapter). When he wants to complete it he stands up then performs Rukuâ (bowing down on oneâs knees).
He (the Imam) said, âHis Salah (prayer) is like that of the one who performs it in a standing position.ââ ÙØ«Ù - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (MirʾÄt al-Ê¿UqÅ«l fÄ« Sharḥ AkhbÄr Äl al-RasÅ«l (15/334))
