Was a specific length prescribed for the miswak?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. This is a common question. He asks: Did anything come from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding the length of the miswak?

The Shaykh:
About what?

The questioner:
About the length of the miswak.

The Shaykh:
Yes, the jurists said that it should be the length of a shibr so that one can hold it and be able to grip it. As for whether anything came from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding this, I do not know, but the jurists mentioned this. Yes.
