The ruling on making up the prayers missed by one who was unconscious

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Among the questions that came in, the questioner says: A man was involved in an accident, O Shaykh. He suffered a concussion. He is sometimes awake and sometimes out of it. He remained in this state for fifteen days without praying. Is his action valid, or is he required to perform the previous prayers?

Answer:
If he regains consciousness, he is required to perform the prayers. If he left them off, he is ordered to make them up. As for if he was struck by dizziness, or if he was unconscious, or if he was unaware, then no prayer is required of him as long as he is in that state. Yes.
