The required number for a women's congregation and the ruling on a woman raising her voice in recitation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: What is the ruling on the required number for a women's congregation? And should a woman raise her voice when she prays with them?

A: If she is praying with women, it is prescribed for her to recite aloud in the prayers where recitation is loud, so that they can hear and benefit from the words of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). No specific number is required for this, but if there is only one woman with her, she stands to her right. If there are more, they stand to her right and left, and she leads from the middle.
