We ask Allah to forgive your mother, have mercy on her, grant her well-being, and pardon her. As for what she was unable to fulfill regarding the conditions and pillars of prayer, those obligations are waived for her. The prayers she missed are not to be made up on her behalf. However, you should frequently supplicate and seek forgiveness for her, or perform any act of worship and dedicate its reward to her, as that will benefit her.
