The ruling on passing in front of a person praying
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner asks about the ruling on a person passing in front of a person praying, and if I am unable to prevent it, what is obligatory for me?
Answer:
The one praying behind an imam has the imam’s sutrah as his sutrah. So he does not pass in front of him, meaning in front of the imam between him and his sutrah. As for the ma’mum (those praying behind the imam), there is nothing wrong with passing between the rows, especially if he needs to do so, and the imam’s sutrah is their sutrah. Yes.
