Ability to stand changes while praying
Question

                If a praying person suddenly cannot stand up for the remainder of the 
prayer, or he was unable to pray standing up so he was praying sitting 
down, then he became able to stand again, what should he do?
Praise be to Allah.Ibn Qudama, (may the mercy of Allah be upon him), said: 
  "As soon as the ill person during prayer is able to do what he was not 
  able to do when he commenced the prayer, whether it be standing, sitting, bowing, 
  prostrating, or bowing, then he should move on and build on what has been already 
  completed from his prayer. The same if he began the prayer completely capable 
  of performing all actions, then suddenly became unable to perform certain actions. 
  In this case he continues praying in the best shape he can and builds on what 
  he previously had completed as though nothing has changed in his condition."1 
  The evidence is: hadith Umran Bin Hossayn, (may Allah be pleased with 
  him), who said, "I had bawaseer (hemorrhoids) so I asked the Prophet 
  (peace be upon him), about salaat, and he said: 'Pray standing up; if 
  you cannot, then sitting down; if you can not, then on your side.' "2
