Turning the body in prayer and its effect on its validity

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If the Shaykh turns his body, for example, he turns around and then faces the qiblah, does his prayer become invalid?

Answer:
If you are tired, sit down. Do not turn except with the head. If he turns with his body and his intention, the prayer becomes invalid. We ask Allah for well-being.
