It is narrated from Abu Juhaifa that he saw Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) giving the call to prayer (adhan). He said: I also began to turn my face here and there along with his mouth during the adhan.

It is narrated from Abu Juhaifa that Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) planted his staff, then gave the call to prayer (adhan), and put his fingers in his ears. I saw that he turned while giving the adhan. Imam Darimi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The hadith of Sufyan Thawri (mentioned above) is more authentic.
