He died and had prayers owed and did not leave a will

Question

If someone had missed prayers and then sincerely repented and began to make up the missed prayers, but died before completing all of them, and did not state in his will that he owed any prayers, is it possible for Allah to overlook this on the Day of Judgment?

Answer

I say, and with God's help: The pardon for one who has been negligent in performing prayers is with God Almighty, and only He knows it. As for us, we say that it remains a debt upon him, and God Almighty will hold him accountable for it, whether He punishes him or, if He wills, forgives him. And God knows best.
