Answer
It is advisable for a woman to perform her Salaat. However, should she perform Salaat behind a male Imaam, it will be valid.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
