Question

Can we offer the first rakah of namaz by standing and other rakaats by sitting?

Answer

If there is a need and you cannot manage standing then it is allowed.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
