🛑 Don't enter Ramadan without this forgotten Sunnah. The Prophet ﷺ said: "If I had not found it hard for my followers, I would have ordered them to clean their teeth with Siwak for every prayer." (Sahih al-Bukhari 887, Sahih Muslim 252) It's called a miswak — a natural toothbrush from the Arak tree (Salvadora persica), native to the Hejaz region. And yes, you can use it while fasting. The Prophet ﷺ did. Imam Bukhari confirmed there's no difference between fasting and not fasting (Sahih al-Bukhari, Book of Fasting). The hadith says: "The toothstick is cleansing for the mouth and pleasing to the Lord." (Sunan al-Nasa'i 5, graded Sahih by Al-Albani) It was also one of the last things the Prophet ﷺ held before he passed away. Aisha (RA) softened it for him with her own teeth. (Sahih al-Bukhari 4438) Available for just 3 SAR near Masjid Nabawi. 📌 MISWAK FACTS: - Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ and all Prophets before him - From the Arak tree (Salvadora persica) - Natural fluoride, antibacterial, anti-plaque, anti-fungal - WHO recommended for oral hygiene - Works as well as or better than a toothbrush - Part of the Fitrah — one of 10 natural practices in Islam - Permissible while fasting - Costs 3–10 SAR in Madinah Do you use this forgotten Sunnah?
