​The Marketplace

If you can, do not be the first to enter the market or the last the leave it, as it is the battlefield of Satan and his flag is raised in it.

رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله :  السُّوقُ دارُ سَهْوٍ وغَفلَةٍ ، فَمَن سَبَّحَ فيها تَسبِيحَةً كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ بها ألفَ ألفِ حَسَنةٍ. كنز العمّال : 9330 .

 The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'The market is a place of distraction and negligence, so whoever occupies himself therein with the glorification of Allah, Allah records for him the worth of a million good deeds.' Kanz al-Ummal, no. 9330

رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله :  لا تَكونَنَّ - إن استَطَعتَ - أوَّلَ مَن يَدخُلُ السّوقَ ولا آخِرَ مَن يَخرُجُ مِنها فَإِنَّها مَعرَكَةُ الشَّيطانِ وبِها يَنصِبُ رايَتَهُ . تفسير القرطبى : 13 / 16 .
