Commentary
A trade caravan arrived in Al-Madīnah exactly during the Friday sermon. The caravan announced the arrival by beating drums and other instruments. Many people who were not aware of the importance of the Friday sermon, they rushed to the caravan and left the Prophet delivering the sermon. Because they thought if they remained behind they would not get things of their need, whereupon this Verse was revealed.
