Is it allowed for women to attend Friday prayers at a mosque?

My question is that whether women are allowed in mosque at Friday for Jumuah salah. Is it haram or allowed? And one more question, can the birth of Prophet Muhammad (SAW) be celebrated in Islam? If there is any hadith please explain.

Answer:

(Fatwa: 208/208/M=1433)

(1) Jumuah and jamah is not for women. It is better for women to offer salah in their homes.
(2) It is not proved.

Allah (Subhana Wa Ta’ala) knows Best
