The Ruling on Calling the Adhan in the Ear of a Newborn

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it a sunnah (recommended practice) to call the adhan (the call to prayer) in the child's ear after birth?

Answer:
Yes. This was reported so that the first thing he hears is the remembrance of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). If this is done, it is a good thing.
