The ruling on the congregation if a road lies between them

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Is it permissible for women to pray the Friday prayer in one house behind the imam, with a public road between them and him?
Women are not addressed with the obligation of the Friday prayer or the congregational prayer, except in the case of the festival prayer. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded them to go out, but if they attend the mosque and pray the Friday prayer with the people, it suffices for the midday prayer.
As for if they gather in a house and perform the Friday prayer, their prayer is not valid. Likewise, if they pray in their houses behind the imam, their prayer is not valid, whether there is a road between the mosque and them or they are adjacent to the mosque.
