Does being in an insane state violate Prayer and Fasting in Shia Islam?

Salaam

blessed iftar 

The insanity that invalidate prayer and fasting is the insanity that is to such a level that a person cannot distinguish between right and left male and female or right and wrong. It’s a total incomplete form of insanity even most bipolar, depressed, anxious people aren’t insane according to Islamic standard insane would be like a schizophrenic was in a full-blown episode

We can interact as a different thing. This would be a person whose IQ is below 70 or even lower. They don’t have the intellectual capacity of adult understand things in the right way.

Somebody who has a 70, 75 80 iq that’s lower but they can know right from wrong someone who’s bipolar whether they take their meds or not unless they’re having a full-blown manic episode. Someone who is depressed knows that killing himself is wrong.

medicine helps people with mental illness dysfunction to make better decisions, but it doesn’t take away the religious responsibility their morality or their knowledge.

I know plenty of bipolar people from the inner city PTSD people who have fit sacked up who fight with people but they’re not insane. These are personality and behavioral issues that often require therapy medication cognitive behavior, adjustment, etc..

mentally abnormal and insane are not the same thing in Islamic law

wallahu alam
