[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "The prayer of a man while sitting is half of his prayer while standing."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «صَلَاةُ الرَّجُلِ قَاعِدًا عَلَى النِّصْفِ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ قَائِمًا»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "The prayer of a man while sitting is only half of his prayer while standing." Abdur Rahman ibn Mahdi narrated this hadith.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «صَلَاةُ الرَّجُلِ قَاعِدًا عَلَى النِّصْفِ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ قَائِمًا» وَقَفَهُ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ  

[Machine] Abu Abdulrahman narrated this hadith from Abdullah Ibn Amr more than once in a raised (i.e. elevated) manner. Mention of the differences regarding Al-Zuhri in this hadith.  

أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَقَدْ رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ غَيْرُ وَاحِدٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو مَرْفُوعًا [146] ذِكْرُ الِاخْتِلَافِ عَلَى الزُّهْرِيِّ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The sitting prayer is equal to half of the standing prayer." Abu Abdur Rahman said, "This is a mistake and the correct opinion is from Al-Zuhri, narrated from Abdullah ibn Amr, it contradicts what Muhammad ibn Ishaq said. How should the recitation be at night?"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «صَلَاةُ الْقَاعِدِ عَلَى النِّصْفِ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْقَائِمِ» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ هَذَا خَطَأٌ وَالصَّوَابُ الزُّهْرِيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو مُرْسَلٌ خَالَفَهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ كَيْفَ الْقِرَاءَةُ بِاللَّيْلِ  

"I asked Aishah: "How did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recite at night- did he recite loudly or silently?" She said: 'He used to do both; sometimes he recited loudly and sometimes he recited silently.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1662)  

سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ كَيْفَ كَانَتْ قِرَاءَةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِاللَّيْلِ؟ أَيَجْهَرُ أَمْ يُسِرُّ؟ قَالَتْ «كُلُّ ذَلِكَ قَدْ كَانَ يَفْعَلُ رُبَّمَا جَهَرَ وَرُبَّمَا أَسَرَّ»
