What is the stance on selling a woman during Friday prayer?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
A woman is permitted to sell during the Friday prayer, as she is not obligated to attend it, provided that the person she is dealing with (buyer or seller) is also someone not obligated to attend Friday prayer, such as women, children, or travelers. However, if one of the two transacting parties is addressed by the Friday prayer obligation, then selling is forbidden for him and disliked for the other party. It may even be forbidden for the other party as well, due to assisting in sin, in accordance with the Almighty's saying: "And do not cooperate in sin and aggression."
