The Ruling on Facing the Qiblah in the Adhan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah benefit you. This questioner says: We went on a land trip, and our mu'adhdhin called the adhan without facing the direction of the qiblah. He asks: What is the ruling? May Allah bless you.

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. It is not obligatory to face the qiblah for the adhan; rather, it is a recommended practice. Yes.
