miswak

Question:

Salam 3alaykom

Can you teach me the proper way to use miswak because the shaykh lokman effendi said in his video sohbat that the prophet ( saws ) use it other way that most of people use it.
Salam 3aleykom.

Answer:

wa `alaykum salam,

The best example for following the Sunnah of our Prophet (pbuh) is the example of our Shaykhs particularly Mawlana Shaykh Nazim. He carried miswak with him at all time and used it before every prayer including Sunnah and Nafilah prayers. He also sometimes used it during wudhu and before reading Quran and before starting the Dhikr. He also used it when waking up and before going to sleep. The only time he did not use it before a prayer was for Asr prayer when he was fasting.

And Allah and His Prophet know best.
