The Ruling on Women Praying in Congregation at Home

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
She says: Shaykh, my aunt is diligent in performing the obligatory prayers, but in Ramadan, Shaykh Salih, she gathers the girls, her daughters, and leads them in the tarawih prayer in her home.

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. It is permissible for women to pray in congregation at home with one of them as the imam. She stands in their row, not in front of them, but in the middle of their row. Yes.
