Does a woman passing in front of a man invalidate his prayer if he is praying in the Haram?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A woman passed in front of me while I was praying in the Haram, a voluntary prayer from the recommended practices. Should I turn away and break my prayer?

Answer:
No, do not break the prayer. The prayer is valid, if Allah wills. Passing through the Haram does not harm due to the large number of people and the difficulty involved,
and has not placed upon you in the religion any difficultyوَمَا جَعَلَ عَلَيْكُمْ فِي الدِّينِ مِنْ حَرَجٍ
[Al-Hajj 22:78]
