The ruling on the use of wet miswak and toothpaste by a fasting person

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : What is the ruling on the use of wet miswak by a fasting person? And is toothpaste permissible for him to use?

Answer : There is nothing wrong with a fasting person using wet miswak, but he must not swallow it because it has a taste. As for toothpaste, there is also nothing wrong with using it, but we dislike it because toothpaste has a strong penetrating power that reaches the stomach. The night is near. Yes.
