Question:
He asks: What is the ruling on a child when he is born? Is the adhan called in his right ear and the iqamah in his left ear? In the columns?
Answer:
It was reported this way so that the first thing to enter his hearing is the remembrance of Allah and tawhid (the oneness of Allah). This is a sunnah (recommended practice), not an obligation; it is a sunnah.
