Security personnel standing in front of the Ka'bah during Salaah

Q: We find security personnel standing in front of the Ka'bah facing the Jamaath in the Haram Sharif during Salaah time and even during Sajdah, whereas we do not do this in the Masjid. Is this allowed according to Shariah?

A: They are doing it for your safety and security.

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