Question:
He says that one of his sons has lost his memory regarding the prayer and acts of worship.
Answer:
If he has no intellect and no comprehension, then he owes nothing,[Al-Baqarah 2:286], and legal responsibility follows the intellect and is tied to it; so if the intellect is lost, there are no obligations, and praise be to Allah.

لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا
