Facing the Qiblah in the Adhan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is facing the qiblah a condition for the adhan? If one calls the adhan while not facing the qiblah, is that permissible or is it a condition?

Answer:
No, and he said it is among the recommended practices. Say: If one turns to other than it, say: The performance is valid. Yes.
