Brushing Teeth While Fasting

January 12, 2015

 

Question;

 

Can we brush our teeth while fasting?

 

 

Answer;

 

Cleaning one’s teeth with a Miswak or with a dry brush (i.e. not containing tooth paste) is allowed during a fast. However, one should not use paste during the fast because it is makruh. Nevertheless, if nothing is ingested past the throat the fast is not broken.
