34/11. Chapter:

“And when they see some merchandise or some amusement [beating of Tambur (drum) etc.], they disperse headlong to it...” (V.62:11). And Allah’s Statement: “Men whom neither trade nor sale divert them from the Remembrance of Allah...” (V.24:37)

وَقَالَ قَتَادَةُ كَانَ الْقَوْمُ يَتَّجِرُونَ، وَلَكِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا إِذَا نَابَهُمْ حَقٌّ مِنْ حُقُوقِ اللَّهِ لَمْ تُلْهِهِمْ تِجَارَةٌ وَلاَ بَيْعٌ عَنْ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ، حَتَّى يُؤَدُّوهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ.Qatada said, “The people used to trade, but whenever they were to perform any of Allah’s obligations, then neither trade nor sale would divert them from the Remembrance of Allah, but they would rather fulfil that obligation.”

Sahih BukhariHadith Number 2064

حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ، عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ أَقْبَلَتْ عِيرٌ، وَنَحْنُ نُصَلِّي مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم الْجُمُعَةَ، فَانْفَضَّ النَّاسُ إِلاَّ اثْنَىْ عَشَرَ رَجُلاً، فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ ‏{‏وَإِذَا رَأَوْا تِجَارَةً أَوْ لَهْوًا انْفَضُّوا إِلَيْهَا وَتَرَكُوكَ قَائِمًا ‏}‏

Narrated Jabir: A caravan arrived (at Medina) while we were offering the Jumua prayer with the Prophet. The people left out for the caravan, with the exception of twelve persons. Then this Verse was revealed: 'But when they see some bargain or some amusement, they disperse headlong to it and leave you standing." (62.11)
