The answer

A woman's prayer outside her home is of two types: The first is her prayer in gatherings of men, such as mosques. The Prophet (peace be upon him) clarified its ruling by saying: "Do not prevent the female servants of Allah from Allah’s mosques, and their homes are better for them." So, it is better for a woman to pray in her home, except for the Eid prayers, for which the Prophet (peace be upon him) commanded women to go out. The second type is her prayer in a home other than her own, for a visit or similar reason. There is no harm in this, and her prayer there is like her prayer in her own home.
