Engaging in Business after the First Adhaan of Jumu'ah

Q: Salaah-551: I sell Itr (perfume) and move about with a box of perfumes. Most people come to the Masjid after the first Adhaan and it is at this time that I make the most sales. Can I engage in business after the first Adhaan when I perform my Sunnah salaah Ueiore the Adhaan and listen to the entire Khutbah? I then start my business immediately after the Jumu'ah salaah and perform my Sunnah salaah afterwards when everyone has left, Is this permissible?

Answer: One should terminate all business activities immediately after the first Adhaan of Jumu'ah and start preparing for the salaah. The Sunnah salaah needs to be performed immediately after the Jumu'ah salaah and it is Makrooh Tanzeehi to delay it to engage in worldly activities. One may perform the four Rakaahs Sunnah salaah with brief Qiraa'ah immediately after the Jumu'ah salaah and then engage in business. And Allaah knows best what is most correct.
