The length of the steps at a time should not be larger than the distance of one row. One should refrain from walking normally to the Musall\u0101.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Walking during prayer while facing the qiblah does not invalidate it when it [walking] is not consecutive and he does not leave the Masjid, and according to Qad\u0101&#8217;, as long as he does not leave the rows. Likewise in al-Muniyah, if one turns his back to the qiblah, it [the prayer] is invalidated. Likewise in Al-Zahiriyyah, if a person walks during his prayer the distance of one row, his prayer is not invalidated. If he walks the distance of two rows, if he walks all at once, his prayer is invalidated. If he walks to a row, stops, and then to another row, his prayer is not invalidated. This is also stated in the Fatawa of Qadi Khan.<sup>[1]<\/sup><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">(His statement, \u201cEven if it is many\u201d) meaning, even if he walked the length of many rows in this case, and it is supported by his statement, \u201cand thus\u201d (His statement, \u201cUnless the place has changed\u201d) meaning, if he left the mosque or passed the rows, if the prayer is in the desert, then in that case it is invalidated, just as if he walked the length of two rows at once.
