Are women obliged to pray Jummah prayer?

Question

Are women obliged to pray Jummah prayer? If they are, do they still have to pray four Rakats of Zuhar prayer?

Answer

Women are not obliged to perform Jumuah Salaah. However, if they do perform Jumuah Salaah, they are not required to perform Zuhr Salaah.

And Allah Ta’ala knows best.
