Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: I am afflicted with taking a medication that causes relaxation in the body and heaviness in sleep in a strange way, which prevents me from performing many of the prayers, despite my effort to place an alarm near my head, but often the prayer is missed. His question is: Is there a sin on me for that, knowing that my use of this medication is necessary?

Answer:
There is no sin on you for that; you are excused in this. Yes.
