Wudhu

Question

If one is wearing false teeth, does it have to be removed when making Wudhu?

Answer

To remove the false teeth when making Wudhu is difficult, hence, it will not be necessary to remove it at the time of every Wudhu. One should merely gargle the mouth whilst wearing the false teeth.

Ask Ibn Masood

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Ifta Ibn Masood. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
