Praying with food remnants between the teeth

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question of Fatwa number ( 18368 )
Q 2: What is the ruling on one who prays with food remnants between his teeth ; because I heard that the angels curse the one who has food remnants in his mouth, is this correct?
A 2: It is prescribed for the Muslim to take care of cleanliness, and this includes cleaning the mouth and teeth of food residues. If one prays with food remnants between his teeth, his prayer is valid. What is said about the angels cursing the one who has food remnants in his mouth has no basis. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
