Is prayer mandatory on a dying person who goes through a state of unconsciousness , then wakes up ?

Answer:
If he wakes up, and is conscious, then he should pray the way he could, but if he isn`t conscious, then he is exempt from prayer as Allah says in this regard: “On no soul doth God Place a burden greater than it can bear.”{Al-Baqarah/286}.
