Chapter on Ruling of the Unconscious Person, the One Afflicted with Bile (Sahib al-Mirrah]) and the Insane Person Regarding Prayer and Fasting

اِبْنُ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ رِفَاعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلْمُغْمَى عَلَيْهِ شَهْراً مَا يَقْضِي مِنَ اَلصَّلاَةِ فَقَالَ» يَقْضِيهَا كُلَّهَا إِنَّ أَمْرَ اَلصَّلاَةِ شَدِيدٌ«.
Ibn Abi Umayr, from Rifaa, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, who said: I (narrator) asked Imam عليه السلام about ‘one who is unconscious for a month, what does he make up of the prayer?’ Imam عليه السلام said: “He makes all of it up. Indeed, the matter of prayer is severe.”
