What is the ruling on digital trade at the time of Jumu‘ah? - Islam Question & Answer: It is prohibited to trade by buying and selling after the call to Jumu‘ah prayer. This prohibition includes every interaction that will distract one from Jumu‘ah and does not apply only to ordinary trading. Based on that, being distracted by digital trade at the time of Jumu‘ah is haraam. Seeing that the times of prayer vary from one city to another, it is a good idea to put a note on your website stating that purchasers – if they are among those for whom Jumu‘ah prayer is obligatory – should pay attention to the sanctity of the time for Jumu‘ah prayer and not make any purchases at that time.
