How does a sick person make up the prayers he missed?

Question:
May Allah reward you. A person was sick for a month and was unable to perform the prayer during that time. He wants to make them up and asks about the method of making up the prayers. Does he make them up all at once, or is he required to make them up at their times? Meaning, he makes up the Fajr prayer with the Fajr prayer, and so on.

Answer:
The sick person does not abandon the prayer; rather, he prays according to his condition. The one who says, "He does not abandon the prayer, but prays according to his condition and his ability," is correct. . Therefore, the prayer is not disliked in any state, as long as the person's mind remains; it is not disliked in prayer. But he prays according to his condition. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do not abandon the prayer because of illness except if the mind is lost. If the mind is lost and he becomes one who does not reason, then this is looked into. If the loss of mind continued for a long period, months or years, and then his mind returned to him, then he does not make up what was missed, because the obligations were lifted from him during the time of losing his mind, so he only prays in the future. But if the period of his loss of mind was short, if the period of his loss of mind was short, say, from three days to ten, for example, a short time, and his mind returned to him, then he makes up what he missed, and he makes it up consecutively. He makes it up consecutively; he does not delay the times of the prayers. He does not pray the Dhuhr with the Dhuhr, and the 'Asr with... No, this is a mistake. This is among the common people; it is a mistake. Rather, he prays in order: the prayers of the first day, then in order the prayers of the second day, then in order the prayers of the third day, and so on, until he completes what is upon him. If he is able to make them up in one sitting, it is obligatory for him to do so. And if he is not able, he distributes them over periods according to his ability, as long as he does not harm himself in a livelihood he needs, in which case he distributes them over periods, and in each period he makes them up in order or consecutively.
