The ruling on a man praying in the row of women in the two Sacred Mosques

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Sometimes in the Makkah or Madinah Haram, we see a man praying in the row of women. What is the ruling on this man’s prayer?

Answer:
It is not permissible except if there is a dire necessity or a crowd. If there is a dire necessity or a crowd, dire necessities have their own ruling. But if there is no dire necessity, it is not permissible for him to stand in the row with the women. Yes.
