The ‘taste’ of a normal siwaak usually goes away after the first few times that a person uses it!

when at the end a small piece is left of siwak do not throw the siwak in the dustbin or on road,burry it in mud.this is what our beloved prophet (saw) used to do.

Jazaakillaahi khairan sis Khawlah… indeed, we do hope to begin a weekly series of reviving the sunnah of everyday etiquettes. Suggestions for these posts are welcomed! :)

Sister AnonyMouse, when I see this post title “Revive A Sunnah…” I would like to suggest that you continue this with another post on Revive A Sunnah: Greeting with Salam (people have started kissing cheeks like the Europeans and claimed it as the Sunnah); or Revive A Sunnah: Eat A third of A Belly (people have become so obese even in the month of Ramadhan, in fact, Muslim countries spend more on foods in this month)
MashaAllah, you are very good with topics like this.

Assalamu’alaykum
Thank you brother Amad, but I’ve tried that, even giving gifts of miswak. It is embarrasing to see sisters going about in the Masjid not realizing they have bad breadth. Nice hijabs and jilbabs, beautiful made up face with painted nails, but wreaks….
I was also surprised to learn the fact that some mothers with many little kids actually have no time to even have shower, never mind brushing their teeth.
May Allah bless my mother who used to NOT let us sit next to her until we brushed our teeth completely.

You could offer him/her a gum, and/or mention the benefits of miswak on bad breath :)

Hmmmm……

How do inform a person his or her breadth stinks? or just stay 6 feet away?

People don’t get it! Okay, calm down iMuslim…

First I used to do the normal brush the tongue thing… then I used the toothbrush with the special attachment… but there is still a lot of “residue” left, even after rinsing.

So now I brush my tongue with paste, like normal, and then scrape with the scraper. It’s like shaving the tongue (but not as painful as that sounds) – it gives you a completely fresh feel, no residue remains, which means there are much fewer bacteria left behind, so your mouth stays fresher for longer.

Don’t take my word for it – try it! They don’t cost very much.
