Brushing the teeth when waking up for fajr
Question
Is it compulsory to brush the teeth when we wake up for Fajr prayer? This is for those who have a habit of sleeping after Fajr prayer so that they can brush their teeth only once in the morning.
Answer
It is a strongly emphasized sunnat.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
