How can the imam's mistake be corrected when reciting the congregational prayer for women, as it is recited silently, and what is the ruling on the prayer in this case?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

When a woman leads other women in a loud prayer, she should vocalize, but not as loudly as men. This is permissible as long as no foreign men are present. However, in the presence of foreign men, she should not vocalize. In such a case, those praying behind her would not be able to correct her mistakes.
