The Mu'adhdhin Turning and Looking Away During the Adhan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, does the mu'adhdhin turn and look away during the adhan, or does he face the qiblah?

Answer:
The mu'adhdhin faces the qiblah and does not turn around. The jurists said that he does not turn around, but rather he faces the qiblah in every adhan. Yes.
