The extent of turning the head when saying the closing salam in prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: When turning the head to say the salam, as for the imam, if he says it to his right and to his left, what is the extent of that?

The Shaykh:
Yes, the turning

The questioner:
Yes, Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
The extent of the turning is that he turns his neck to the right and to the left until he sees the whiteness of his cheek, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do that to indicate the end of the prayer. Yes.
