I want to find out if the Fard prayers for a sick person is different from the regular person, Please let me know.

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. We ask Allaah to exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.

If the questioner is asking whether obligatory prayers for a sick person is different in number from that of a regular person, the answer is no. The sick person has to perform 2 Raka'h Fajr prayer, 4 Raka'h Thuhr and Asr, 3 Raka'h Maghrib, and finally 4 Raka'h I'shaa prayer, exactly the same number of Raka'h that must be performed by a healthy person. However, if the questioner is asking regarding the manner of performing the prayers, whether it is different, the answer is yes. The sick person performs the prayers according to his ability and he is not burdened with more than what he can bear. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): {So keep your duty to Allaah and fear Him as much as you can.}[64:16].

The Prophet, salallaahu alayhi wa sallam, also said: ''Pray standing, however if you are unable, then pray sitting, and if again you are unable, pray lying down''. [Al-Bukhari]

Allaah knows best.
