Question:
He says: Tell us about making up missed obligatory prayers for one who wants to pray, and who left off several obligatory prayers at the beginning of his life.
Answer:
If they were many prayers, he must repent to Allah, maintain the prayer for the rest of his life, and Allah forgives whoever repents. As for if they were few obligatory prayers, he makes them up; he makes them up immediately when he remembers them or is able to make them up, in their proper order. Yes.
