Does a woman sit cross-legged or in the tawruk position in the first tashahhud?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Does a woman sit cross-legged or in the tawruk position in the first tashahhud?

Answer:
The correct view is that a woman is like a man; no specific ruling has been reported for her. Even though the school of jurisprudence states that she should lower her legs and place them underneath her, there is no evidence for this.
