Use Of A Chair In Salaah

The Ulama have mentioned that those people who are invalid and unable to stand, should be encouraged to perform their Salaah sitting on the floor and not on chairs. Yes, those who are incapacitated in the true sense to the extent that, due to some handicap, they cannot even sit on the floor would be permitted to sit on a chair and perform their Salaah thereon.

Such people should however, arrange to bring the chairs from their homes. It is not the responsibility of the committee members and those serving on Masjid committees to provide them with chairs.
