Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The last question in this episode is from a girl in the village. She says: Her mother, when she was young, used to leave the prayer, not out of negligence but out of ignorance, and she did not know how many of these prayers there were. Now, after her mother has repented, praise be to Allah, and has become diligent in keeping the prayers, she asks: How should she deal with what has passed? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
Repentance is sufficient for her, praise be to Allah. She does not have to make up the missed prayers. She must repent, and she has repented, praise be to Allah. This is because leaving the prayer is disbelief, and repentance is sufficient for that, praise be to Allah.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
