The Number of Adhans for Friday Prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question of Fatwa No. ( 17880 )
Q 2: The number of adhans for Friday prayer : The Maliki school: The adhan is called three times after the imam enters. The Hanbali school: This is a religious innovation (bid'ah), and there is no valid Friday prayer for one who does this, because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) called the adhan only once, and therefore they took a mosque for themselves, staying away from these innovations. The first and second issues were the two main causes of the division between the mosques, and if a Maliki dies, he is not asked for forgiveness; because he died in a state of disbelief (kufr)
Vol. 2: It is prescribed for the Friday prayer, once the imam has entered, to have a single adhan, as was the case during the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and it is not permissible to add to it, and doing so is considered a religious innovation; this is evidenced by the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Sahih Muslim 1718b , so whoever does it is sinful, but his Friday prayer is not invalidated. It is incumbent upon everyone to understand matters of knowledge with wisdom, good manner, and good intention, without violence, extremism, or severing ties. May Allah reform everyone. As for the first adhan on Friday, it is from the recommended practice of the Rightly Guided Caliphs; it was done by Uthman ibn Affan (may Allah be pleased with him), and the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) agreed with him on it in his time, among them being Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sunan Abi Dawud 4607Sahih (Al-Albani) .
And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and his Companions.

He who did any act for which there is no sanction from our behalf, that is to be rejected.
من عمل عملاً ليس عليه أمرنا فهو ردYou must then follow my sunnah and that of the rightly-guided caliphs. Hold to it and stick fast to it. Avoid novelties, for every novelty is an innovation, and every innovation is an error.
عليكم بسنتي وسنة الخلفاء الراشدين المهديين من بعدي، تمسكوا بها وعضوا عليها بالنواجذ، وإياكم ومحدثات الأمور، فإن كل محدثة بدعة، وكل بدعة ضلالةAnd success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and his Companions.
