Question

A woman ordered a ticket for a show worth four hundred shekels and mistakenly ordered a show for Shabbat. Is she allowed to sell the ticket to someone who desecrates Shabbat? [Regular tickets are sold out, and anyone who wants a ticket can only buy from someone who has already purchased]?

Answer

It is forbidden. Even if the tickets are not sold out, one should not be lenient.
