A woman attending the Friday prayer to pray over a funeral

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for a woman to attend the Friday prayer with the intention of attending the funeral prayer and obtaining the reward of praying over the funeral and the Friday prayer?

Answer:
No. Well, it is permissible for her to attend the Friday prayer and the funeral prayer with the Muslims, and if she comes here, she prays with the Muslims and obtains the reward. However, she must maintain modesty, she must leave off perfume, she must avoid free mixing of men and women, and she must adhere to the rulings of the Shari'ah. If the rulings of the Shari'ah are gathered and she adheres to them, it is permissible. She prays with the women over the funeral, and then... Yes.
