The ruling on a woman passing in front of a person praying

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
So, is it the case that if a woman is killed, or if a killer passes in front of her, or if she is crossing her country?

Answer:
They said: It does not invalidate her prayer, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said, in the hadith you heard, "If a Muslim man prays..." The implication of this is that a woman is not like that; [the passing of a woman] does not cut off a woman's prayer. In any case, the precaution is to avoid this matter. However, the hadith indicates by its implication that this is specific to a woman passing in front of a man, whereas her passing in front of a woman, the implication of the hadith is that it does not [invalidate the prayer].
