The single adhan or two adhans for the Fajr prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Usually, the people in our country call the adhan for the Fajr prayer only once. Is it permissible for us to call two adhans, or should we follow the custom of the people?

Answer:
The adhan called when the time enters is sufficient. However, if the first adhan is called, that is better, so that people wake up and are alert, and the prayer does not be missed. If it is done, it is better.
