What is the reason for naming the Zuhr prayer the first prayer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : We said that the Zuhr prayer is the first prayer, did we not, Shaykh? Does the Fajr prayer begin the day's prayers?

The Shaykh : It is the hadith of Abu Juhayyah that passed by us, in which it is called the first prayer. Also, Jibril led the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in prayer for the first time in the Zuhr prayer, which is why it is called the first.
