Presumably you have an actual function/handler hanging off of your
click? In that case, make the function itself check if the event target
that triggered the function is currently set to `aria-disabled`, and if
that's the case, bail out and don't execute whatever the function is
supposed to do?

function doIt(e) {
if (e.target.getAttribute('aria-disabled') == "true") {
return;
}
/* the actual thing that's supposed to happen on click */
}
