Does the prayer of women become invalid if some of them pass in front of their rows?

The questioner : Does the prayer of women become invalid while they are praying the tarawih if some of the women pass in front of their rows, or does it not become invalid?

The Shaykh : It does not become invalid if they are with the imam, because the imam’s sutrah is a sutrah for those behind him. So, a woman does not invalidate the prayer if she passes between the rows of men behind their imam, nor does she invalidate the prayer if she passes between the rows of women behind their imam, or behind their female imam, because the imam’s sutrah is a sutrah for those behind him. The evidence for this is that 'Abdullah ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) passed on his donkey in Mina during the Farewell Pilgrimage, passing in front of some of the rows, and no one criticized him for it, even though a donkey invalidates the prayer. This is proof that if something that invalidates the prayer passes in front of the ma'mum (one praying behind the imam), it does not harm. However, the question remains: is it permissible for a person to pass in front of the ma'mum?
Because the ma'mum will not stop him; they will let him walk. But is it permissible for him to pass in front of them? Or do we say it is not permissible based on the general meaning of the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) statement: The scholars, or some of the scholars, said that it is not permissible for them to pass in front of the ma'mum. Others said that it is permissible because this does not affect their prayer at all. But someone might say: it does not affect the prayer, but it distracts the ma'mum.
If a man passes in front of the praying people, he distracts them, or if a woman passes, especially if she is young and beautiful, she distracts them. So we say: what is the default? It is permissibility. And if it leads to distracting the praying people, then he should refrain and not pass in front of them.
