Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Your Eminence, I have a question. What is the ruling on food remnants between the teeth during prayer?
The Shaykh : Any known matter.
The questioner : The second question: What is the ruling on touching the mushaf without ritual purity?
The Shaykh : Yes, do we accept two questions from him since the presenter is the same?
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Now, as for food remnants in the teeth, there is nothing wrong with them remaining between the teeth even if a person prays. However, if something separates from them, he should not swallow it. Sometimes something remains between the teeth and then comes out after a while, or perhaps he moves it with his tongue and it comes out. We say: there is nothing wrong with this, but do not swallow it.
