Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What are the boundaries of the Haram? And is praying in the market near the Haram considered to be within the Haram?
Answer:
Praying behind the imam requires the person to be inside the mosque, inside the mosque, unless the mosque becomes crowded and the rows extend outside the mosque. In that case, he prays with the rows out of necessity. As for praying outside the Haram and outside the mosque, without there being any crowding or congestion inside the Haram, his prayer is not valid. Yes.
