حَدَّثَنَا النُّفَيْلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنِ السَّائِبِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ كَانَ يُؤَذَّنُ بَيْنَ يَدَىْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا جَلَسَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ عَلَى بَابِ الْمَسْجِدِ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ . ثُمَّ سَاقَ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ يُونُسَ .

This Hadith continues the topic of the Jumuah adhan. Sa'id b. Yazid reported that the call to Friday prayer was made at the gate of the mosque in front of the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم when he sat on the pulpit. The report also mentions Abu Bakr and Umar, then points to the same meaning as the previous narration. The main search idea is adhan on Friday, especially the call when the imam sits on the minbar.
