The ruling on a woman attending the Friday prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
What is the stronger position regarding a woman attending the Friday prayer?

The stronger position: It is not valid for her to attend, neither the Friday prayer nor any other, except the festival prayer; because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered that women be brought out for the festival prayer. As for anything other than that, it is permissible but not required. And the woman, if she goes out for the festival prayer or for the other prayers or for a need in the market, should go out without displaying her adornment, without wearing perfume, and without swaggering in her walk,Meaning: walking with modesty.
