The ruling on passing in front of the one praying in the Haram
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on interrupting the prayer in the Haram? And does that apply, or is there leniency in the Haram compared to other mosques, because people have taken this matter lightly?
Answer:
The prayer is not interrupted, but perhaps the questioner means the ruling on passing in front of the one praying in the Haram. There is no harm in it out of necessity, due to the large number of people and the crowd. So there is no harm in passing out of need and necessity, and it does not affect the prayer, if Allah wills. Yes, especially if they are praying an obligatory prayer behind the imam, the imam’s barrier is sufficient for those behind him. The imam’s barrier is a barrier for those behind him.
