جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ ، أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " كَانَ
يَجْلِسُ بَيْنَ الْخُطْبَتَيْنِ ، وَيَتْلُو آيَاتٍ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ ، وَكَانَتْ صَلَاتُهُ قَصْدًا ، وَخُطْبَتُهُ قَصْدًا " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to deliver two sermons on the day of Jumu'ah. First, he would deliver one sermon, then sit down, and then stand up and deliver the second sermon. The sermon and prayer of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) were moderate, and he used to recite verses from the Noble Qur'an on the pulpit.
