Chapter on the Prayer of the One in Necessity

سَعْدٌ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ نُوحٍ قَالَ: كَتَبْتُ إِلَى أَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ اَلثَّالِثِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنِ اَلْمُغْمَى عَلَيْهِ يَوْماً أَوْ أَكْثَرَ هَلْ يَقْضِي مَا فَاتَهُ مِنَ اَلصَّلاَةِ أَمْ لاَ فَكَتَبَ« لاَ يَقْضِي اَلصَّوْمَ وَ لاَ يَقْضِي اَلصَّلاَةَ»
Sa’ad from Ayyub ibn Nuh who said: I wrote to Abu al-Hasan al-Thalith عليه السلام (the Third), peace be upon him, asking Imam عليه السلام about the one who falls unconscious for a day or more. Does he have to make up the prayers that he missed or not? So Imam عليه السلام wrote: “He does not make up the fast, nor does he make up the prayer.”
