Not sitting in the sunnah posture during salaah due to experiencing pain in one's toe

Q: My right toe hurts while walking because of sitting in prayer with toe facing the qiblah, what should I do?

A: If you are experiencing pain, then you may sit in a posture that is easy for you (i.e. by leaving your toe down and not lifting it). Once your toe heals, you may resume sitting in the sunnah posture.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
