Women Praying in Congregation Led by One of Them

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is it permissible for a woman to gather the women of the household if they have the intention, or to gather other women and pray with them?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with women praying in congregation led by one of them, and she should be in their row; it is better for her to be in the middle of the row.
