Starting with the right side and the ruling on gargling and sniffing water

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

Answer:
Starting with the right side is recommended in everything because it is among the good things, honoring the right hand. Yes. Ha. Did you mention it, or does it mean anger or the intention to mention it? Yes, indeed. Yes. It is obligatory because it is the action of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him); if it explains the verse, then it is for obligation. Also, the command to gargle and sniff water came, saying: “Sniff water deeply, unless you are fasting.” And in the hadith, it says this comes, it says this in the same book: “When you perform wudu, gargle and sniff water with the command.” So the command indicates obligation. Yes. Yes. Placing water inside the mouth is sufficient, but if you swish it around, that is more complete; swishing is a recommended practice. Yes.
