وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ جَمِيلِ بْنِ دَرَّاجٍ: أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ مَا حَدُّ اَلْمَرِيضِ اَلَّذِي يُصَلِّي قَاعِداً فَقَالَ« إِنَّ اَلرَّجُلَ لَيُوعَكُ وَ يَحْرَجُ وَ لَكِنَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِنَفْسِهِ وَ لَكِنْ إِذَا قَوِيَ فَلْيَقُمْ»
And from him, from Ali, from his father, from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr, from Jamil ibn Darraj: That he asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام: “What is the condition of the sick person who should pray sitting?” Imam عليه السلام said: "A man may feel pain and discomfort, but he knows himself best. However, when he regains strength, then let him stand."
