Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that in the blessed era of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), the words of the adhan were said twice each, and the words of the iqamah were said once each, except for «قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ» , which was said twice. We would perform ablution upon hearing the iqamah and come for prayer. Abu Muhammad says: Abu Mathna's name is Muslim bin Mehran; he was the muezzin of the mosque of Kufa.
