Question:

I would like to know the rulings of Ayatullah Khui and Ayatullah 
Seestani on the participation of ladies in the Jumaa prayers. I would 
appreciate if this question could be answered by Mullah Asghar.

Answer:

In the event when attending Namaze Jummah becomes obligatory, women are
among those exempted.

So participation of the ladies would be voluntary.  And if they pray Jumu'ah, 
then it will not be necessary for them to pray Zuhr.
