The reason for adopting the second adhan for Jumu'ah in the time of 'Uthman

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Why, may Allah preserve you, did the Muslims adopt the practice of 'Uthman ibn 'Affan regarding the two adhan for Jumu'ah, and did not suffice with the practice of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), Abu Bakr, and 'Umar?

Answer:
My brother, in the time of the Messenger, and in the time of Abu Bakr and 'Umar, they did not need the second call. In the time of 'Uthman, they needed it because Madinah expanded and they were in their farms. They needed to be alerted to attend Jumu'ah so that they would not be preoccupied with it. Yes. And the action of 'Uthman is from the actions of the Rightly Guided Caliphs. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Hold fast to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the Rightly Guided Caliphs after me.عليكم بسنتي سنة الخلفاء الراشدين مهديين من بعدي.
So this is from the actions of the Rightly Guided Caliphs. Yes.
