The answer

Selling after the second call to prayer on Friday is forbidden for those upon whom Friday prayer is obligatory. Exempted from this ruling are those upon whom Friday prayer is not obligatory, such as women and travelers; it is permissible for them to buy and sell at this time, provided that the other party is not someone upon whom Friday prayer is obligatory. As for a woman buying and selling inside the mosque during Friday prayer, it is prohibited for two reasons: First, because it distracts her from listening attentively to the sermon, and second, because buying and selling are absolutely forbidden inside the mosque.
