Question

If a person has a horrible headache, and the motion from standing to sitting to Sajdah etc aggravates it, can one sit for Salaah?

Also if a person has had a very hectic day, and it feels like they are almost about to fall over, is it permissible to sit and read Salaah?

Answer

If it is unbearable he can sit.

No.

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.
