"It is a means of purifying the mouth, pleasing to the Lord." (Bukhari, Sawm, 27)
It has been mentioned in one narration that the Namaaz which is performed after Miswak is 70 folds more exalted than the Namaaz which is performed without making Miswak. [Shu'ab al-Iman, Vol. 3, Page 26, Hadith 2774]
Abu Nu’aym narrates on the authority of Hadrat Jaabir (Radi Allahu Anhu) that Rasoolullah (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) said, ‘To perform 2 Raka’ats after performing Miswak is more exalted than 70 Raka’ats which is performed without performing Miswak.’ [Al-Targhib wa at-Tarheeb, Vol. 1, Page 102, Hadith 18]
As is proved in the Saheehain, when the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, got up at night he would clean his mouth with the Siwak, and he also encouraged us to use the Siwak all the time, even when fasting. That is because of the great benefits that it offers to the mouth and teeth.
These benefits include the following:
(1) It kills germs. Research has proved that it kills off at least five types of disease-causing germs that are found in the mouth, the most important of which is the streptococcus bacteria which causes some types of rheumatic fever (Brown and Jacob, 1979).
(2) It removes food remnants and yellowness from the teeth, and makes teeth shiny.
(3) It purifies the mouth by killing germs and treats wounds and inflammation of the gums.
(4) It prevents the growth of germs by increasing acidity in the mouth.
(5) It removes plaque before it becomes hard and affects the tissues.
(6) It prevents diseases of the mouth and teeth.
(7) It has been proved that it effectively reduces sugar levels and has an anti-cancer effect.
Tips on Using the Siwak
•A siwak is usually about 15 cm in length and under 1 cm in diameter, which makes it easy to handle when cleaning the mouth.
•Before using the siwak, some of the bark at one end of it is usually stripped off and softened by chewing it slightly to separate the fibers.
•If the siwak dries out, it can be softened by soaking it in fresh water or rose water. The end should be cut afresh each time the siwak is used to ensure hygiene
Spread the knowledge .. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to 'Ali (May Allah be pleased with him), "By Allah, if a single person is guided by Allah through you, it will be better for you than a whole lot of red camels."
