The ruling on a woman passing in front of a person praying?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: If the ma'mum's sutrah is the imam's sutrah, and a woman passes by, does that invalidate the prayer in this case?

Answer:
No, passing in the Sacred Mosque does not invalidate the prayer, whether by men or women, due to necessity. This is a necessity caused by the crowding and people's need to pass through, and the religion is easy, praise be to Allah. So the Sacred Mosque is an exception to the prohibition of passing in front of a person praying. Yes.
