The Ruling on Repeating the Adhan in the Mosque

Question:
Regarding, Shaykh, repeating the adhan in the same mosque, what is the ruling on repeating the adhan?

Answer:
The adhan is not repeated except in two prayers: the Fajr prayer and the Jumu'ah prayer, in order for people to prepare for them. Bilal used to call the adhan at night, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, and then Ibn Umm Maktum would call the adhan after him. So Bilal's adhan was to wake people up and alert them to the nearness of the dawn, and Ibn Umm Maktum's adhan was to inform people of the entry of the Fajr time. As for Jumu'ah, the first adhan was ordered by the Rightly Guided Caliph 'Uthman ibn 'Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) when the people in Madinah increased and became occupied with their wealth and their crops. He ordered that the first adhan be called so that people would prepare to go to the Jumu'ah prayer. Then, when the khatib enters, the mu'adhdhin calls the second adhan, which is for the entry of the time. Yes.
