Praying While Sitting Or Lying Down

Answer: under condition when someone cannot do salah normally, or under situation when salah cannot be done normally.

Disable person who cannot do salah normally can do salah while sitting, or while lying if he cannot sit. Someone who is to weak to do salah normally, or if salah normally will make him feel pain, can do salah while sitting or lying.

Someone who able to do salah normally but in situation when salah cannot be done normally is also allowed to do salah while sitting (or lying if the situation really prevent him to salah normally or while sitting). In example, someone in traveling with bus train and there is no space to do salah normally, he is allowed to do salah while sitting on his seat.
