Question

What distance is required between a person and a musalli in order for the person to be allowed to walk past in front of him? Will this ruling be different for the haram in Makkah since it is extremely difficult to move without passing in front of anybody there?

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
