عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: أَنَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُكَبِّرُ فِي كُلِّ خَفْضٍ وَرَفْعٍ وَقِيَامٍ وَقُعُودٍ وَيُسَلِّمُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ حَتَّى يُرَى بَيَاضُ خَدَّيْهِ أَوْ خَدِّهِ، وَرَأَيْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ يَفْعَلَانِ ذَلِكَ
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saying the takbeer when going down, rising up, standing, and sitting, and turning for salam to the right and left in such a way that the whiteness of his cheeks would become visible. Then I saw Sayyiduna Abu Bakr and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) doing the same.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would turn to the right and to the left saying: "Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah, peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah," (he, peace and blessings be upon him, would turn his face so much that) the whiteness of his cheeks would become visible.

عَنْ وَاسِعٍ أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ عَنْ صَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ كُلَّمَا وَضَعَ وَكُلَّمَا رَفَعَ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى يَمِينِهِ، السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ عَلَى يَسَارِهِ
When Janab Wasi’ asked Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) about the prayer of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: Whenever you would go down or rise up, you would say Allahu Akbar, then to the right side you would say: As-Salamu ‘Alaikum wa Rahmatullah, and to the left side you would say: As-Salamu ‘Alaikum.
