The Woman's Posture in the Audible Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. How is the woman's prayer in the audible prayer? Does she recite aloud or quietly, as is the case in the quiet prayer?

Answer:
If there are no men present who can hear her voice, it is recommended (mustahabb) for the woman to recite aloud, just as the man does. However, if there are men present who would be tempted by her voice if they heard it, it is not permissible for her to recite aloud; rather, she should recite quietly.
