Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Another question, if Allah wills, the third one: A man is in the fourth rak'ah of his prayer, and a woman who is menstruating and of age comes and walks in front of him, thereby interrupting his prayer in the fourth rak'ah. Does he repeat all four rak'ahs, or does he repeat only the last rak'ah?
The Shaykh : His prayer is invalid.
The questioner : All four of them?
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : Fine, in the same question: If he had placed a sutrah, and she went in between him and the sutrah, in front of him?
The Shaykh : His prayer is valid.
