Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does using a toothbrush and toothpaste earn a person reward, such that it becomes a recommended practice (sunnah) by analogy to the miswak?
Answer:
There is no doubt that it accomplishes what the miswak accomplishes. If one uses the brush and toothpaste, this accomplishes what the miswak accomplishes in cleaning the teeth and removing the smell of the mouth. Yes.
