The ruling on a young girl interrupting a man's prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Does a young girl who has not yet reached puberty interrupt a man's prayer?

Answer:
No, she does not interrupt it, neither the older woman nor the young girl. However, it is forbidden for an older woman to pass in front of a person praying, and if she is allowed to pass, or if she passes, that diminishes the reward of his prayer. As for the invalidity of the prayer, the correct view is that it is not interrupted, neither by an older woman nor by a young girl. Yes.
