Sunan and etiquettes of siwāk

Let us listen to some sunan and manners related to siwāk taken from the Ameer of Ahl al-Sunnah’s book, 163 Madani Pearls. First, let us listen to two hadith of Allah’s Messenger صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.

1.   Using siwāk and performing two units of salah is better than 70 units performed without siwāk.[2]

2.   Make usage of siwāk mandatory upon yourselves, for it cleanses the mouth and pleases Allah Almighty.[3]

*    It is narrated that Sayyidunā ʿAbdullah bin ʿAbbās رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ once said:

Siwāk has ten qualities. (Some of them are:) It cleanses the mouth, strengthens the molars, improves eyesight, removes phlegm, takes away bad breath, is part of the sunnah, makes the angels happy, and pleases Allah Almighty.
