Explanation of the Book of Ablution, Ghusl, Menstruation, and Tayammum-08b
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reciter: Uthman narrated to us, saying: Jarir narrated to us from Mansur from Abu Wa'il from Hudhayfah, who said: Mishkat al-Masabih 1193.
The Shaykh : (peace and blessings be upon him), "The Chapter on the Miswak". The term *sawak* is used for the tool with which one uses the miswak, and it is also used for the act of using the miswak. There is no doubt regarding its use for the tool. As for the act, it is a verbal noun, because the verbal noun of *taswak* is *taswakan*, and *sawak* is a verbal noun, just as *kalam* is a verbal noun for *takallama*, and the verbal noun is *taklim*. Therefore, *sawak* is used for the act of using the miswak and for the tool with which one uses it.
The miswak is a recommended practice at all times, based on the hadith of A'isha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan an-Nasa'i 5Sahih (Darussalam) In it, there are two benefits:
The first benefit is that it purifies the mouth.
The second benefit is that it pleases the Lord. Even if it were nothing but the pleasure of the Lord (Mighty and Majestic), that would be sufficient. Therefore, it is a recommended practice at all times, but it becomes more emphasized in certain places:
Among them is when a person wakes up from sleep, as Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him and her) said:Sunan Ibn Majah 656Sahih (Darussalam), and Hudhayfah said: Mishkat al-Masabih 1193. *Yashwas* means he rubs it with water, and *fah* means his mouth, which includes the teeth, gums, and tongue. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) would use the miswak on all of these.
And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would sometimes exaggerate in using the miswak, as Abu Musa said:. That is, he would feel like vomiting because he was exaggerating.
But exaggeration may be repulsive to people if someone is with you. It is sufficient in the recommended practice to do it at home, especially when waking up from sleep, for a person needs to be thorough in using the miswak.
Therefore, the miswak is more emphasized when waking up at night due to the action of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), and because the mouth changes significantly. Yes, is the time over?
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : No, look, there is one minute left. If the adhan was at seven, now the adhan is at fifty-eight minutes.
The questioner : So there is nothing left.
The Shaykh : There is nothing left...
‘A’isha said that when the Prophet stood up at night to pray he began his prayer with two short rak'as . Muslim transmitted it.

The miswak is a recommended practice at all times, based on the hadith of A'isha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Siwak is a means of purification for the mouth and is pleasing to the Lord.
السواك مطهرة للفم مرضاة للربThe first benefit is that it purifies the mouth.
The second benefit is that it pleases the Lord. Even if it were nothing but the pleasure of the Lord (Mighty and Majestic), that would be sufficient. Therefore, it is a recommended practice at all times, but it becomes more emphasized in certain places:

He came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and found him using a miswak in his hand, saying: "Ah, ah." And the miswak was in his mouth as if he were about to vomit.
