The Ruling on Buying and Selling After the Adhan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: What is the ruling on buying and selling after the adhan? He says: Because at times I find people at the entrances of mosques selling miswak before the iqamah, is it permissible for me to buy from them?

Answer:
There is no objection to using the miswak or a small amount of something similar if you need it; there is nothing wrong with that. However, bringing in goods and sitting to sell at the mosque door during the time of prayer and after the adhan is not permissible. Yes,
when [the adhan] is called for the prayer on the day of Jumu'ah [Friday], then proceed toإِذَا نُودِيَ لِلصَّلَاةِ مِن يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ فَاسْعَوْا إِلَىٰ
[Al-Jumu'ah 62:9]
to
the remembrance of Allahذِكْرِ اللَّهِ
[Al-Jumu'ah 62:9]
neither commerce nor sale distracts from the remembrance of Allah and performance of prayerلَّا تُلْهِيهِمْ تِجَارَةٌ وَلَا بَيْعٌ عَن ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ وَإِقَامِ الصَّلَاةِ
[An-Nur 24:37]
they used to buy and sell, but when they heard the mu'adhdhin and the scale was in his hand, he lowered it and turned to the prayer. Yes.
