1178. hadíth
وَ رَوَى زُرَارَةُ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ اَلْمَرْأَةُ تَؤُمُّ اَلنِّسَاءَ قَالَ «لاَ إِلاَّ عَلَى اَلْمَيِّتِ إِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ أَحَدٌ أَوْلَى مِنْهَا تَقُومُ وَسَطَهُنَّ مَعَهُنَّ فِي اَلصَّفِّ فَتُكَبِّرُ وَ يُكَبِّرْنَ.
Zurarah narrated from Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (a.s) that He said: “I asked him whether a woman can lead other women in prayer.” Imam (a.s) said: "No, except for the prayer over the deceased (funeral prayer) if there is no one more appropriate than her. In that case, She should stand among them in the row, and She recites the takbir and they follow her."
