Doubting whether one is still a mazoor

Q: If a person qualifies for being a mazur and one day he sleeps for the entire namaz time of asr and maghrib. He only wakes up for about 15 minutes during asr and doesn’t pass wind during that time. 

Is this person still considered a mazur because he may not have passed wind during sleeping?

A: Since he is doubtful of whether he is still a mazoor or not, he will remain a mazoor.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
