Answer
(Fatwa: 1153/1153/M=1431)
(1) It is not lawful to take interest based loan from a bank for donation. In addition, it is not right to give donation as bribe to take admission in spite of being failed in the examination.
(2) If you mean that a person is not able to offer salah standing but he can offer salah with rukuh and sajdah sitting on earth, in this case it is not lawful for him to offer salah sitting in a chair, he should offer salah sitting on earth with ruku and sajdah.
And if you mean something else explain it and submit the question again.
