"When the Mu'adh-dhin pronounced the Adhan, some of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ would proceed to the pillars of the mosque (for the prayer) till the Prophet ﷺ arrived and in this way they used to pray two rakʿat before the Maghrib prayer. There used to be a little time between the Adhan and the Iqama." Shuʿba said, "There used to be a very short interval between the two (Adhan and Iqama).

كَانَ الْمُؤَذِّنُ إِذَا أَذَّنَ قَامَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَبْتَدِرُونَ السَّوَارِيَ حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَهُمْ كَذَلِكَ يُصَلُّونَ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ الْمَغْرِبِ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ بَيْنَ الأَذَانِ وَالإِقَامَةِ شَىْءٌ قَالَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ جَبَلَةَ وَأَبُو دَاوُدَ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ لَمْ يَكُنْ بَيْنَهُمَا إِلاَّ قَلِيلٌ

"When the Mu'adhdhin called the Adhan, some of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ would get up and rush to the pillars (in the Masjid) and pray until the Prophet ﷺ came out and they were like that. They would pray before Maghrib and there was nothing between the Adhan and Iqamah."

[Machine] "When the Mu'adhin called for prayer, the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would quickly get up to perform the voluntary prayers until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out. They would similarly perform the two rak'ahs before Maghrib prayer. There was little time between the calling for prayer and the commencement of the prayer."

[Machine] If the muadhin (the one who calls the adhan) calls for prayer, people from the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would rush to stand in rows and pray until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would come out to them. They would continue to pray the two units of the sunnah before Maghrib, with nothing in between the adhan and the iqamah.
