516. As-Sā'ib bin Yazīd narrated: "The Adhān during the time of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ, Abū Bakr, and 'Umar was when the Imām came out, [and when] the Iqāmah was called for the Ṣalāt. Then 'Uthmān [may Allāh be pleased with him] added a third call at Az-
Zawrā'.[1] (Ṣaḥīḥ)
Abū 'Eisā said: This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ.

Commentary
The second Adhān was introduced due to a need and interest, therefore in these days, if there is a need and benefit of it, it may still be called; it may be abandoned if not needed, which is rather better. But to name it an innovation is inappropriate. As for the statement of Ibn 'Umar calling it an innovation, the word innovation will be interpreted linguistically just as 'Umar arranged the congregation for Tarāwīh prayer and linguistically interpreted it 'innovation'; this Adhān may also be interpreted in the same meaning.
