The answer

The prohibition against praying between the pillars of the mosque was reported because they disrupt the rows, unless there is a need to pray between the pillars due to a large number of worshippers and the mosque being small. In that case, there is no dislike. If the mosque becomes crowded with its people and the number of worshippers increases, there is no objection to praying between the pillars. This is not considered praying alone behind the row, but rather standing in the row with the worshippers.
