The Ruling on a Woman Attending Tarawih Prayer in the Mosque

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the ruling on a woman attending the tarawih prayer in the mosque?

Answer:
If she is covered and there is a designated area for women, her going out to the mosque is beneficial. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Do not prevent the female servant your women from visiting the mosques of Allah.لا تمنعوا إماء الله مساجد الله
Sunan Abi Dawud 566
and their homes are better for them. The female Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) used to go out and pray the obligatory prayers and the tarawih prayer with the Muslims. They would pray with the Muslims and stand behind the men, and they were covered. Yes.
