The Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) manner of using the siwak

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What was the method the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used when using the miswak?

Answer:
The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used the miswak and encouraged its use. The miswak is a twig, a soft twig that cleans the teeth. He would chew it until it became soft and moistened by saliva, then he would move it across his teeth horizontally. He would move it across his teeth horizontally, holding it in his left hand and moving it across his teeth, starting with the right side and moving to the left side. Yes.
