it is from Islamic rituals and now medically are stressing on it most doctors will tell you to drink a lots of water while sitting so your stomach wont expand and your hear beat can go fast especially when you wake up at night , and if and when your stomach expand you have a severe Ulcer

thnx missie for taking interest in that topic, really i was also not caring about these things to sit or stand doesnt make any difference but once i read about what are the disadvantages of not sitting and drinking now i started drinking in sitting position i asked too many friends of mine which are dr s and they all said its better to drink in sitting position and u can also try the difference when u r sitting and drinking u ll feel much more comfort then standing ,,,,and not only sitting but u have to drink at least in three breaths so water can be filtered easily ...thnx take care

This is for personal knowledge.Scientific reason, i mean to say drinking water sitting or standing , does it effect on digestion? any effect on belly? Because some of my friends say it is better to drink water in sitting position so that will effect on belly size.

Can you clarify this question for us? I am not sure what type of "scientific reasons" you are looking for, in regards to drinking water sitting or standing. Why is this question important to you (is this for personal knowledge, a health condition, or a homework assignment?)

HI ALISON MY NAME IS FARU ,I THINK THAT QUESTION in regards to drink water sitting or STANDING IS VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION, FOR YOUR KIND INFORMATION I HAVE SOME REASONS TO TELL U WHY WE SHOULD DRINK WATER WHILE SITTING ,ASK ANY SCIENTIST OR DR I AM WRONG OR RITE ,,

In our bodies there are the pores of the skin as outside our bodies called sfringer. Sfringer is a maskuler structure (muscle) which can be opened (so that urine can pass) and closed. Any water we drink will be distributed at the screening stations located in the kidney. Sfringer it will open at the time we sat down. And vice versa sfringer will be closed at the time we stood up.
If we sat drinking with the water we drink will be filtered by the sfringer. Instead, if we take the stand so the water we drink will not be filtered by sfringer because sfringer when closed and directly to the bladder.
At a minimum there will be 2 disease that we suffer if we always drink with standing (not sitting):
1. Any clean water we drink must contain lime. Because sfringer when closed, the water contents and no one can enter the so sfringer these calcium channels would accumulate in the ureter that will eventually crystallized. This is called urinary stone disease.
2. Like a waterfall that falls into the hard stone, over time hard rock will be eroded and that blows a hole in the water. So is the water we drink, because sfringer closed then no water is filtered and all the water we drink will immediately fall into the bladder so the bladder will eventually get hurt and become infected.
That is the minimal disease that we will suffer if we take the stand. That means there will still be other diseases that would threaten, if we take a stand.

Our prophet Mohammed recommended us to always sit while drinking... That was 1400 years ago !
