A person who abandoned prayer and then repented.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A person abandoned prayer for several days out of negligence, and then he repented and felt remorse. Does he have to make up the prayers he missed?

Answer:
Answer: If he abandoned it intentionally, he is not upon Islam. Whoever abandons prayer intentionally commits disbelief and exits the religion. However, repentance obliterates what came before it, so he should repent to Allah and maintain prayer in the future. He does not have to make up what he missed, because repentance obliterates what came before it.
