One Calling the Athan and Another Calling the Iqamah
and One Giving the Sermon and Another Leading the Prayer.
His Eminence The Great Scholar
Shaikh Abdul-Azeez ibn Baz
Is it permissible for one person to make the first Athan and another person make the second? Likewise is it permissible for one person to give the khutbah or sermonb and another lead the prayer on Friday?
There is no problem with this and all praise if for Allah. It is permissible for one person to mke the athan and another to make the second, also one person to give the khutbah and another to lead the prayer. All of this is no problem but it is preferred that the one who gives the khutbah be the one to lead the prayer and vice versa so the prayer leader is the one who gives the sermon just like the prophet SAW and the rightly guided predecessors although it is no problem for one person to lead the prayer and another to give the sermon.
