The heirs making up the prayers the deceased left off during his illness

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: My sister left off the prayer during her illness and then died. Is anything required of the heirs regarding this act of worship?

Answer:
Nothing is required of them. If she left off the prayer because she was unable to perform it due to the loss of her memory, then nothing is required of her either. The important point is that the prayer is not made up for anyone, because it is a physical act. Yes.
