What is the ruling on praying outside the Haram?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: What is your advice to the one who prays outside the Haram and does not see the connected rows in front of him? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
It is not permissible for a person to pray outside the mosque unless the mosque is full, whether it is the Sacred Mosque or any other mosque. It is not permissible for him to pray outside the mosque unless the interior is full and the rows extend to the exterior, and they can see the imam or see those behind him through a door or windows. When the rows are connected, one should know this ruling: if the interior is full and the rows extend to the exterior, and those outside can see the imam or see those behind him in the rows so that they can follow him, so that they can follow the imam, then there is no harm in that. Yes.
