What about the salawat before adhaan? Also, do the salawat directly address Rasoolullah as if he is present and watching?

In Pakistan (and possibly India), some masajid (of the Barelvi persuasion) say, "الصلاة والسلام عليك يا رسول الله الصلاة والسلام عليك يا حبيب الله" (and some variations of this) right before the adhaan loudly over the speakers and then the same is repeated for iqamah. When I was living in Pakistan (in the 90s), I don't recall ever hearing this before any adhaan but when I went back to Pakistan (particularly Karachi) around 2007, that was the first I heard of this.

for shafi's it is permissable but usualy salawaat is done after the adhaan & we can make it as loud as the adhan but its not a common practice. some masjids will only do it before jumuah & other only do it in the nights of ramadhan. saying Assalaam mu alayka is also permissable as you do say it like that in salah.
