Q: If a lady went to the Haramain and she performed some salaah behind the Imaam, will she have to repeat those salaah?
A: If the imaam makes niyyat for leading the women in salaah, then their salaah performed behind the imaam will be valid. However, if the imaam does not make niyyat for leading the women in salaah, then their salaah performed behind the imaam will not be valid.
We do not know whether the imaam makes the niyyat or not. Hence, we cannot comment and tell woman which salaah they should repeat and which salaah they don't have to repeat. However, our ulama discourage women from reading salaah behind the imaam in the Haram.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
