The First and Second Adhan on Friday

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The first and second adhan on Friday, is there anything reported regarding them, O Shaykh?

Answer:
The second adhan is the one that was practiced in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when the time for prayer entered, when the time for prayer entered, such as the place of the adhan for the midday prayer. As for the first adhan, it was only in the time of 'Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), the Rightly Guided Caliph, when the people in Madinah increased and dispersed among the farms and in buying and selling, they needed to be alerted to the nearness of the Friday prayer. So 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) ordered the first adhan to alert the people so they could prepare for the Friday prayer. This is from the Sunnah of the Rightly Guided Caliphs, because 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) is the third of the Rightly Guided Caliphs. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Adhere to
my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the rightly guided Khulafa'بسنتي وسنة الخلفاء الراشدين
