How far away from Maqam of Ibrahim can I pray?

The crowd in Mecca makes prayer behind Maqam of Ibrahim (p) difficult, especially for women; is it permissible to pray further away from the Maqam and how far?

It is permissible to pray behind Maqam Ibrahim (p) wherever a person (man or woman) can, and the al-Masjid al-Haram in its entirety is considered a place of prayer (mataaf), not only the area behind Maqam Ibrahim (p).
