Purchasing from a Pepsi machine which exists in the street and doing so after the second Adhan for Jumu`ah Prayer


310

Q: What is the ruling on purchasing from a Pepsi machine which exists in the street and doing so after the second Adhan (call to prayer) of Jumu`ah (Friday Prayer)? Does the ruling of prohibited sale apply to this?


A: The Noble Ayah (Qur'anic verse) is general in preventing the seller and purchaser from selling and purchasing: O you who believe (Muslims)! When the call is proclaimed for the Salât (prayer) on Friday (Jumu‘ah prayer), come to the remembrance of Allâh [Jumu‘ah religious talk (Khutbah) and Salât (prayer)] and leave off business (and every other thing). (Part No. 11; Page No. 64) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
