"I saw the Prophet ﷺ praying sitting down and I said: 'I was told that you said that the prayer of one who is sitting down is worth half of the prayer of the one who is standing up.' He said: 'Yes indeed, but I am not like any one of you.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1659)
أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي قَاعِدًا فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي حُدِّثْتُ أَنَّكَ قُلْتَ أَنَّ صَلَاةَ الْقَاعِدِ عَلَى النِّصْفِ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْقَائِمِ وَأَنْتَ تُصَلِّي جَالِسًا؟ قَالَ أَجَلْ وَلَكِنِّي لَسْتُ كَأَحَدٍ مِنْكُمْ
