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

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
One of the sisters has three questions. Her first question is: What is the ruling on calling the adhan (call to prayer) into the ear of a newborn? And is the one who does it rewarded, and the one who leaves it off not punished?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. The adhan is called into his right ear, and the iqamah (second call) is called into his left ear. There is nothing wrong with that. It is a sunnah (recommended practice). Yes.
