English translation

711. It was narrated from 'Awn bin Abu Juhaifah that his father said: "I came to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ in Abtah, when he was in a red tent. Bilâl came out and gave the call to prayer, turning around and putting his fingers in his ears." (Hasan)

Arabic text

711 - حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْهَاشِمِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ حَجَّاجِ بْنِ أَرْطَاةَ، عَنْ عَوْنِ بْنِ أَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: «أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْأَبْطَحِ، وَهُوَ فِي قُبَّةٍ حَمْرَاءَ، فَخَرَجَ بِلَالٌ فَأَذَّنَ، فَاسْتَدَارَ فِي أَذَانِهِ، وَجَعَلَ إِصْبَعَيْهِ فِي أُذُنَيْهِ»

Commentary

a. Even while on journey, it is necessary to call Adhân for the congregational prayer. b. 'Turning around in his Adhân' means turning his face right and left while saying Hayya 'alas-salâh and Hayya 'alal-falâh respectively. c. It confirms the practice of putting the fingers in one's ears during Adhân.
