Hadith 711
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْهَاشِمِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ ، عَنْ حَجَّاجِ بْنِ أَرْطَاةَ ، عَنْ عَوْنِ بْنِ أَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : " أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْأَبْطَحِ ، وَهُوَ فِي قُبَّةٍ حَمْرَاءَ ، فَخَرَجَ بِلَالٌ فَأَذَّنَ ، فَاسْتَدَارَ فِي أَذَانِهِ ، وَجَعَلَ إِصْبَعَيْهِ فِي أُذُنَيْهِ " .
´It was narrated from 'Awn bin Abu Juhaifah that his father said:` "I came to the Messenger of Allah in Abtah, when he was in a red tent. Bilal came out and gave the call to prayer, turning around and putting his fingers in his ears."
Brief Explanation
1؎: When the muezzin says «حي على الصلاة», he should turn his face to the right, and when he says «حي الفلاح», he should turn his face to the left. If there is no room to turn the face in the minaret during the call to prayer (adhan), then he should simply turn his body.

Commentary:
(1)
Even while traveling, the call to prayer (adhan) should be given for performing prayer in congregation.
(2)
Turning around during the adhan means that when saying "Hayya 'ala as-salah" and "Hayya 'ala al-falah," the face should be turned to the right and left sides.
(3)
This contains evidence for inserting the fingers into the ears while giving the adhan.
