The Wet Miswak for the Fasting Person

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q12: Dentists advise cutting off the used part of the miswak every 24 hours, in order to maintain the presence of the active substance in the miswak while cleaning the teeth. Does using a new miswak or a new part of it affect fasting, especially since it may be accompanied by the breaking and crumbling of some of its parts in the mouth, which could lead to swallowing them?
A12: There is nothing wrong with using a new or renewed miswak while fasting, and any part of the miswak that crumbles must be spit out and removed from the mouth.
