What is the ruling on passing in front of a person praying in the Haram?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is the same question as the one before it. He asks: Is it true that there is a difference between the Sacred Mosque and other mosques? In the Sacred Mosque, it is permissible to pass in front of a person praying, whereas in other mosques, it is not permissible.

Answer:
Yes, that is correct. The Sacred Mosque is an exception where it is permissible to pass in front of a person praying out of necessity. As for other mosques, there is no necessity because there are many paths and the mosques are spacious, unlike the Sacred Mosque. Therefore, it is not permissible to pass in front of a person praying.
