Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says (may Allah preserve you): What is the criterion for necessity in passing in front of the one praying?
Answer:
Severe crowding. You go to the Haram and you see the necessity. Severe crowding. And the large mosques where people are crowded. This is the necessity. They have no way out and no option but to pass through. Let them pass. Yes. Or perhaps they would trample you if you did not stop them. The religion is ease, praise be to Allah. Yes.
