Fatwa #436812 December 2001South Africa

Salaams. I have 3 questions on the Miswaak. 1)How short should it be before discarding it. 2)How should it be discarded. 3)Should you use it after midday when fasting. Jazakallahu-khair.

Answer

It is permissable to use a miswaak anytime during fasting, before or after
midday. The used miswaak should be respectfully discarded when it is not
usable.
