What is the Mas’allah pertaining to using the Eastern toilet (squatpan) & Western toilet(high toilet)?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Askimam.org

Do we have to use a squatpan? I have difficulty using a squatpan? Can one use a high toilet when taking the necessary precautions not to let any water or najaasat splash on oneself? Jazakallah Khair

Answer

One should relieve oneself in a squatting posture. However, if one is unable
or experiences difficulty in squatting, he may use the western toilet and
avoid the impurities splashing on the body or clothes.

and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
