Is it part of the Sunnah for the khatib to turn to the right and to the left?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : If someone were to ask, is it part of the Sunnah to turn to the right and to the left?

Answer : It appears that this is not part of the Sunnah, and that the khatib should face straight ahead, and whoever he intends to address should turn toward him.
