A Woman Praying Alone Behind the Row of Women

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh! A woman prayed alone behind the row of women, and there was space in the row, and she was praying with the imam of the mosque. Is her prayer valid?

Answer:
Yes, so the prayer is valid. A woman is not required to have a companion; if she prays alone, whether she prays with men or with women, it is the same.
