Answer

In the situation in question, your grandmother will lie down and bow her head. However, the head should be tilted more for prostration than for ruku. There are several ways to pray while lying down.
- The legs will lie on the west side, the head on the east side. If possible, lift it with something like a pillow under the back and head so that the chest and face are facing the Qibla. The legs can also spread out to the west, but keep the knees bent if possible. This method is preferable for performing prayers while lying down.
- Lie down with your head facing north and your feet facing south. In this way, lying on the right side, keep the chest and face towards the qibla.
- Head south and feet north. In this way, lie on your left side and keep your face and chest towards the Qibla.Note that if any of these methods is not possible, he will lie down and bow and prostrate as much as possible. In all these cases the head will be tilted a little more than the ruku for sijdah. The prayer should be performed as long as one has the ability to move the head. 7699211297
