Summary
The hadith narrated by Muslim stating that markets are the most disliked places to Allah is authentic. Markets are disliked because they are places of deception, usury, false oaths, broken promises and heedlessness of remembering Allah. The default ruling on entering a market is makruh (disliked) according to the scholars, except for someone who has a need for it. Proper etiquette should be observed and time should not be spent on unprofitable matters to the neglect of one's duties to Allah.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Selain itu, hukum asal memasuki pasar adalah makruh di sisi para ulama melainkan bagi orang yang berhajat padanya.
