  Assalamu 'alaykum wa Rahmatullah

Recently i got tapes from salafibookstore about Fiqh of Adhan by Shaykh Fawzee al-Atharee. Alhamdulillah it is very useful. I just want to mention one thing from there which surprised me a lot because i never heard it before ?
How aahan should be given. All these are small part of a lecture given by Shaykh Fawzee Al Atharee and translated by brother Abu Talhah .
From Abu Mahzura radiallahu anhu that prophet of Allaah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam taught him this adhan:
Allaahu Akbar
Allaahu Akbar
Ashhadu alla ilaha illallah
Ashhadu alla ilaha illallah
Ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasulullah
Ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasulullah
Then returning and saying again:
Ashhadu alla ilaha illallah
Ashhadu alla ilaha illallah
Ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasulullah
Ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasulullah
Hayya 'alas salah
Hayya 'alas salah
Hayya 'alal falah
Hayya 'alal falah

Ishaq meaning ibn Ibrahim added
Allahu Akbar
Allahu Akbar
Laa ilaha illallaah

Muslim, Aboo Dawood in his Sunan, ibn Khuzaimah in his Sahih and others.
Also Hadith of Abdullah ibn Zayd companion who had a dream about adhan teaches us more points on giving adhan. See Aboo Dawood in his Sunan chapter how adhan is to be given vol 1 page 134.

So this shows it is correct and legislated to perform tarji' in adhan i.e muazzin first says 2 shahadas in low voice just people near him can hear it then he again says 2 shahadas for 2nd time raising his voice with them. This is called at tarji'. This tarji' applies in adhan not in iqamah. Most muazzins do not apply this Sunnah.  
So in Summary adhan consists of 19 phrases:
1. Allaahu Akbar
2. Allaahu Akbar
3. Allaahu Akbar
4. Allaahu Akbar
5. Ashhadu alla ilaha illallah (in lower voice)
6. Ashhadu alla ilaha illallah (in lower voice)
7. Ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasulullah (in low voice)
8. Ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasulullah (in low voice)
9. Ashhadu alla ilaha illallah (raise voice)
10. Ashhadu alla ilaha illallah(raise voice)
11. Ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasulullah (raise voice)
12. Ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasulullah (raise voice)
13. Hayya 'alas salah
14. Hayya 'alas salah
15. Hayya 'alal falah
16. Hayya 'alal falah
17. Allaahu Akbar
18. Allaahu Akbar
19. Laa ilaha illallaah  

Fore more you can refer to that tape inshaAllaah..it is very beneficial alhamdulillah

Jazakallahu khairun. In your studies did you come across information pertaining to:

1. fingers in the ears
2. turning to the right upon saying ......
3. turning to the left upon saying ......

and where could one find that information?

  within the hadeeth of abu Juhayfah wahb ibn abdillaah as Suwaa'i that he said: I followed Bilal's mouth (while he was calling the adhaan)here and there, saying to his right and left 'hayya alas salaah, hayya alal falaah' as is stated in Umdatul ahkaam

as for the putting of the fingers in the ears abu Juhayfah also reports that when he saw Bilal calling the adhaan ' and his two fingers were in his ears'. hasan reported by Tirmadhi
