Making Up Missed Prayers

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is an Egyptian, Shaykh, who is residing in Jeddah. He says: I abandoned the prayer for many years, then I returned to it by the grace of Allah the Exalted and I have maintained it. Do I have to make up these prayers that I left?

Answer:
Praise be to Allah who guided you and you returned to repentance and maintained the prayer. As for making them up, if the prayers are few, you make them up. But if the prayers are many, repentance is sufficient, if Allah wills. Yes.
