حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو حَفْصِ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الضَّحَّاكُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ قَالَ: كَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ يَسْتَأْذِنُ فِي ظُلَّةِ الْبَزَّازِ.
It is narrated from Ata (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) used to seek permission before entering the canopies of cloth sellers.

Benefits and Issues:
If a shop is open and one intends to purchase something, it is permissible to enter without seeking permission. However, if one merely intends to stand inside, then it is necessary to seek permission so that their customers are not disturbed. Some scholars have stated that if the cash register or similar valuables are in plain view, then it is necessary to seek permission so that the confidentiality of their cash is not compromised.
