حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَهْضَمِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنِي إِسْمَعِيلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَرَجَ فَرَأَی أُنَاسًا يُصَلُّونَ قُعُودًا فَقَالَ صَلَاةُ الْقَاعِدِ عَلَی النِّصْفِ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْقَائِمِ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 1230
It was narrated from Anas bin Malik that the Messenger of Allah SAW went out and saw some people praying while sitting down. He said: "The prayer of one who sits down is equivalent to half of the prayer of one who stands." (Sahih).
