307. It was narrated that 'Aishah said: "If anyone tells you that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ urinated while standing, do not believe him, for I (always) saw him urinating while sitting down." (Hasan)
307 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَسُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، وَإِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُوسَى السُّدِّيُّ، قَالُوا: حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنِ الْمِقْدَامِ بْنِ شُرَيْحِ بْنِ هَانِئٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: «مَنْ حَدَّثَكَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَالَ قَائِمًا فَلَا تُصَدِّقْهُ، أَنَا رَأَيْتُهُ يَبُولُ قَاعِدًا»

Denial by 'Aishah ﷺ is based on her personal knowledge and observation, because inside the house, the Prophet ﷺ always urinated in the sitting position and inside the toilet. In the preceding Hadith, however, Hudhaifah ﷺ described what he had seen at the outside, of which the Mother of the Believers was not aware. Both of them are, therefore, right in their respective descriptions.
