The ruling on women attending the Eid prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q487: The questioner asks: Is it permissible for a woman to enter the mosque and pray the Eid prayer?

A487: She attends the place of prayer, standing behind the men, just as the female Companions used to attend the place of prayer. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered the young women and those in their private chambers to come out, and menstruating women were to stay away from the place of prayer. They attend, but they keep their distance from mixing with the men.
