Chapter on the Prayer over the Dead

Abu Ali al-Ash'ari, from Muhammad ibn Salim, from Ahmad ibn al-Nadr, from Amr ibn Shimr, from Jabir, from Abu Ja’far عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said: Imam al-Baqir عليه السلام said: “If no man is present, a woman steps forward to the center of them (in the same row), and the women stand to her right and to her left, and she is in their midst. She pronounces the takbirs until she completes the prayer.”
