Ramadhan is coming up!! and I'm a bit confused as to when you can brush your teeth. Are you allowed to brush your after Suhoor? or does that break your fast?
Also, I got told by an auntie that, in ramadhan while you are cooking you are allowed to taste the food? is that allowed
Jazakallah Khair
Ma Salaama
We come together for the sake of Allah and depart for the sake of Allah....
Question: Is the fast invalidated by tasting food?
Answer: Tasting food does not invalidate the fast, if a person does not swallow it. But you should not do it unless there is a need for it; and in this situation, if any of it enters the stomach without your intending it, then your fast in not invalidated.
Shaykh Muhammad bin Saalih al-`Uthaymeen Fatawa Arkaanul-Islaam, Vol.2, p.667
Question: Is it permissible for the fasting person to use toothpaste while he is fasting during the daytime of Ramadhan?
Answer: There is no harm in that as long as one is careful not to swallow any of it. Likewise, it is legislated for the fasting person to use the tooth stick at the beginning of the day and its end. Some of the people of knowledge held the view that using the tooth stick is disliked after midday, but this is an incorrect view. The correct view is that it is not disliked due to the generality of the Prophet's statement: The tooth stick is cleansing for the mouth and pleasing to the Lord. [1] This was recorded by An-Nasa'i with an authentic chain of narration from A'ishah -May Allah Be pleased with her-. It is also due to his statement-Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam-: Were I not placing a hardship upon my Ummah, I would have ordered them to use the tooth stick for every prayer. [2] This Hadith is agreed upon (By Al-Bukhari and Muslim) and this includes the Zuhr and Asr prayers, which are both after midday.And Allah is the Giver of success. 1.An-Nasa'i no.5. 2.Al-Bukhari no.887 and Muslim no.252.
