[Machine] The first adhan on Friday during the time of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used to be called when the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ sat on the pulpit. When he descended, another adhan was called. This was the time of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ , Abu Bakr, and Umar. But when Uthman came, the people increased in number and spread out, so he ordered a Mu'adhdhin to call the adhan from the mosque of Al-Zawra' before he left.  

الطبراني:٦٦٤٤حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ أَبِي اللَّيْثِ ثنا الْأَشْجَعِيُّ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنِ السَّائِبِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ قَالَ

«كَانَ الْأَذَانُ الْأَوَّلُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا قَعَدَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ أَذَّنَ فَإِذَا نَزَلَ أَقَامَ فَكَانَ ذَلِكَ زَمَنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وزَمَنَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ ؓ فَلَمَّا كَانَ عُثْمَانُ ؓ فَشَا النَّاسُ وَكَثُرُوا فَأَمَرَ مُؤَذِّنًا فَأَذَّنَ بِالزَّوْرَاءِ قَبْلَ خُرُوجُهِ»

[Machine] "Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ that he had a mu'adhin. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would sit on the pulpit, the mu'adhin would call the adhan. And when he descended, he would stand, and this was the practice during the time of the Prophet ﷺ, Abu Bakr, and Umar. But when Uthman's time came, the population increased and became numerous. So he ordered a mu'adhin to call the adhan of Zuhr before its actual time, to inform the people that Friday had arrived."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ «كَانَ لَهُ مُؤَذِّنٌ وَكَانَ إِذَا قَعَدَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ أَذَّنَ فَإِذَا نَزَلَ أَقَامَ فَكَانَ ذَلِكَ زَمَنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وزَمَنَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ ؓ فَلَمَّا كَانَ عُثْمَانُ ؓ فَشَا النَّاسُ وَكَثُرُوا فَأَمَرَ مُؤَذِّنًا فَأَذَّنَ بِالزَّوْرَاءِ قَبْلَ خُرُوجِهِ يُعْلِمُ النَّاسَ أَنَّ الْجُمُعَةَ قَدْ حَضَرَتْ»
