Medicinal Properties of Miswak
« on: September 19, 2007, 03:01:32 AM »
A study has revealed that the miswak or teeth cleaning sticks used in Arab and Asian countries have greater value than toothbrush and toothpaste.

A group of dentists at King Saud University (KSU) has done a study revealing the medicinal properties of miswak, while miswak sales have gone up considerably in Ramadan this year.

The study suggests that the beneficial effects for oral hygiene and dental health for those who have been using miswak are equal to, if not greater than, those of a toothbrush and toothpaste.

This research is pointless for muslims because we all know from the sunnah of the prophet that miswak (caday) is used a lot and therefore has to have medicinal properties. In fact the prophet nearly ordered the miswak after every prayer except for the fear that it may be hard on the ummah.
