Using A Toothbrush As A Substitute For The Miswaak

The toothbrush cannot replace a Miswaak. With regards to cleaning the mouth, there are two Sunnats, one is to use the specific stick (Miswaak), and the other Sunnat is to clean the mouth. If a person doesn’t have a Miswaak then if a person uses a toothbrush or his finger with the intention of a replacement, then in this case, he will get the reward of cleaning the mouth but will not get the reward of using the Miswaak.
