The Shaykh:
As for the men, this is not established. As for the women, yes, she led them in prayer, and the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) approved her doing so.

They say that in some narrations she had a mu'adhdhin (one who calls to prayer), but even the mu'adhdhin is not reported to have prayed with her.
