Question:
Do women pray in congregation?
Answer:
If they pray in congregation, there is nothing wrong with it, and if they pray individually, there is nothing wrong with it. If they pray in congregation hoping for the virtue of the congregation and for the sake of teaching, that is good. It is reported from Aisha and Umm Salama that they prayed with some women in congregation for the sake of teaching and guidance. So if a learned woman prays with the women for the sake of teaching, that is good and fine, if Allah wills, and the virtue is hoped for them, but the congregation is not obligatory upon them.
