Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. This questioner says: What does the warning against passing in front of a person who is praying indicate?

Answer:
It indicates prohibition. The warning against passing in front of a person who is praying, without a barrier, if he has a barrier in front of him or is close to one, is forbidden, except when dire necessity requires passing, such as in the Sacred Mosque or in crowded mosques where people are forced to pass. This necessity has its own ruling. However, if the place is spacious and there is a path other than in front of the person praying, it is not permissible to pass in front of the person praying; it is forbidden. Yes.
