Women should avoid hugging, embracing, and kissing each other, as Satan may cause whisperings, especially if there have been previous occurrences or feelings of lust and the emission of discharge.
If hugging or similar acts occur during fasting: If nothing is emitted, the fast is valid. If maniy (seminal fluid) is emitted, the fast is invalid and must be made up. If madhiy (pre-seminal fluid) is emitted, there is no need for a make-up fast, according to the preponderant opinion.
A woman leading other women in prayer is valid.
