The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
It is permissible to go to the toilet while adhan is being called if it is necessary to go or if a person wants to prepare for wudu. In fact, when a person is in the toilet, he fulfils one of the obligatory parts of the prayer, i.e., taharah from najasah (cleanliness from impurity). A natural need is met there.
To sum up, when call to prayer is being called, one should stop, listen to the call to prayer, and go to the mosque if he can or perform the prayer where he is.
