Women carrying the janaazah from the house to the hearse

Q: Are women allowed to carry the janaza from the deceased person's house into the vehicle that will carry it to a graveyard?

A: If there are men and women present, then the men should do this work. Women should not mix up with the men and nor should they come in front of the men.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
