[Machine] On the first day of Friday, it was the first time that the Imam sat on the pulpit during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , as well as during the time of Abu Bakr and Umar. When it was during the caliphate of Uthman and the number of people increased, he ordered the third adhan to be called and it was called in Al-Zawraa. The matter remained steadfast on that in 5745. Abu Amr Al-Adibi informed us that Abu Bakr Al-Ismaili informed us that Al-Hassan ibn Sufyan told us that Habban narrated from Ibn Al-Mubarak, from Yunus, who mentioned it in a similar manner except that he said, "Indeed, the adhan on Friday used to start when the Imam sat on the pulpit on Friday. Uthman ordered the third adhan on Friday, and the rest is the same."  

الْأَوَّلَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ كَانَ أَوَّلَ حِينَ يَجْلِسُ الْإِمَامُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَعَهْدِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ فَلَمَّا كَانَ فِي خِلَافَةِ عُثْمَانَ ؓ وَكَثُرَ النَّاسُ أَمَرَ بِالْأَذَانِ الثَّالِثِ فَأُذِّنَ بِهِ عَلَى الزَّوْرَاءِ فَثَبَتَ الْأَمْرُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ 5745 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَمْرٍو الْأَدِيبُ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْإِسْمَاعِيلِيُّ أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ ثنا حَبَّانُ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ عَنْ يُونُسَ فَذَكَرَهُ بِمِثْلِهِ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّ الْأَذَانَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ كَانَ أَوَّلُهُ حِينَ يَجْلِسُ الْإِمَامُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ وَقَالَ أَمَرَ عُثْمَانُ ؓ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ بِالْأَذَانِ الثَّالِثِ وَالْبَاقِي سَوَاءٌ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to sit on the pulpit when he went out on Fridays and Bilal would call the adhan.  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا خَرَجَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ فَقَعَدَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ أَذَّنَ بِلَالٌ  

The Prophet ﷺ used to deliver two sermons. When he ascended the minbar (pulpit), he would sit until the muʾadhin finished the call to prayer. Then he would stand and deliver the sermon. Afterward, he would sit and remain silent for a while, and then stand again and deliver the second sermon.

It has been narrated to us through the ḥadīth of Isḥāq b. ʿAbdullāh b. Abū Ṭalhah from Anas b. Mālik regarding the story of the pulpit. He said, "A minbar with two steps was built for him, and he would sit on the third step. When the Prophet ﷺ sat on it, the trunk of the date-palm tree moaned."  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَخْطُبُ خُطْبَتَيْنِ كَانَ يَجْلِسُ إِذَا صَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ حَتَّى يَفْرَغَ أَرَاهُ الْمُؤَذِّنُ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ فَيَخْطُبُ ثُمَّ يَجْلِسُ فَلَا يَتَكَلَّمُ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ فَيَخْطُبُ وَرُوِّينَا فِي حَدِيثِ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ فِي قِصَّةِ الْمِنْبَرِ قَالَ فَصَنَعَ لَهُ مِنْبَرًا دَرَجَتَيْنِ وَيَقْعُدُ عَلَى الثَّالِثِ فَلَمَّا قَعَدَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَلَى ذَلِكَ خَارَ الْجِذْعُ
