Extra rinsing of the mouth for the purpose of cleaning during wudu'

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Sometimes I rinse my mouth three times and then complete the rest of the limbs. During that, and before finishing the wudu', I put water in my mouth to rinse it, not intending a fourth extra time, but because I need to remove what remains. Is that valid?

Answer:
If you do not intend it for purification, but only for cleaning, there is nothing wrong with it. But if you intend it for purification, then it is not valid.
