Passing in front of the praying people to exit the mosque

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, you mentioned the prohibition of passing in front of a person praying without necessity. What is the ruling if there are many people praying the regular voluntary prayers after the obligatory prayer, and I have no way to leave the mosque except by passing in front of one of them? Is this permissible for me?

Answer:
This is a dire necessity, yes. If you have no way out except to pass in front of a person praying, and you cannot wait, or if you were to wait and sit, that would be better, but if you are in a hurry and something will be lost if you do not go out, something will be lost, then this is a dire necessity, and then you do not go against the ruling. But if there is no dire necessity, then you sit until a path opens for you, yes.
