Making up missed prayers due to unconsciousness
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a man was struck by unconsciousness for a period, and many prayers passed him that he did not pray. Then he regained consciousness. Does he make them up, or are those prayers dropped from him?
Answer:
We seek help from Allah. Generally, if the period is long and he falls into a prolonged coma, he does not make up the missed prayers. However, if the coma lasts three days or two days, he does make them up, because this does not involve hardship or difficulty for him, so he makes them up. If the coma is for a short period, such as three days, then if it is long, it is not accepted. Yes.
