The Ruling on Making Up Missed Prayers and Fasts for One in a Coma

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, does one who is in a coma for a long period have to make up the prayers and fasts, or is he like a madman who is not held accountable?

Answer:
A long coma, no, he is not held accountable. A coma, or minor madness, so this is not, there is no disagreement that he is not held accountable. But if the coma or madness is slight, and making up the prayers is not burdensome for him, then he comes out of it, yes.
