Turning in prayer to pick up something

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says: Regarding turning in prayer to pick up something and then returning to one's place, does this turning invalidate my prayer?

Answer:
Turning only with the neck is disliked in prayer, but it is permissible out of need. However, if there is no need, it is disliked in prayer. It is a theft that Satan steals from the servant's prayer, as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said. Yes.
