Attracting the Worshipper from His Place of Prayer

Question
Is it permissible to attract a worshipper from his place of prayer to another place for an important matter, such as when a person tells his brother who is praying: 'Move a little so I can do such and such,' or to pull or push him?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is disliked to pull or push the praying person unless it is necessary; because it disrupts concentration and violates the sanctity of prayer, and God knows best.
