“O you who believe (Muslims)! When the call is proclaimed for the Salaah (prayer) on Friday (Jumu‘ah prayer), come to the remembrance of Allaah [Jumu‘ah religious talk (Khutbah) and Salaah (prayer)] and leave off business (and every other thing). That is better for you if you did but know!”
[al-Jumu’ah 62:9]
Leave off business. Did you read that? In the tafsir of this ayah, the scholars of Islam say it is prohibited for Muslims to engage in business transactions after the second Adhan.
Yes that includes sneaky PayPal transactions on your iPhone while your texting away in the Khutbah. Give Business a break.
Friday is the best of days, like a mini Eid for us. Rush to the remembrance of Allah (swt)! Purify your soul, ask forgiveness of your sins and make dua for the Ummah.
