Does Not Following Exactly the Prophet’s ﷺ Way of Sitting Make Salah Invalid?

As-salamu alaykum. I know there are specific steps for sitting in salah, like after sujood and when standing up, but I don't do it that way. I get worried I'll lose balance and break my prayer if I try. I've heard there's a different method for women, but I'm wondering-does not doing it exactly like the Prophet ﷺ did make the prayer invalid?

Sis, I used to stress about this too! But I learned that as long as you're covering your awrah and facing qibla, small differences in posture don't invalidate your prayer. Your intention is what matters most. ❤️

Wa alaykum salam! I'm not a scholar, but I've heard that women can sit differently if it's easier. The deen is meant to be easy, not a burden. May Allah accept our efforts.
