Question
I'd like to know if there is any ruling with regards to a person that has passed the age of 80 and they do not perform salaah.
Answer
If he is in his senses, then salaah is compulsory upon him.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
