Answer
To perform 20 Rakaats Taraweeh is Sunnat-e-Muakkadah (emphasized Sunnat) for both males and females. (Raddul Mukhtaar vol.2 pg.43; HM Saeed)

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
