Question: When should one use the Miswaak?

Answer: The Miswaak is to be used on the following occasions or instances:

1. When making Wudhu.

2. When entering one's home.

3. When getting up from sleep. 

4. When one has bad breath (due to eating something with a strong odour)

5. When going to the Masjid.

6. When attending any gathering.

 7. When reading Qur’aan or Hadith. 

Beside the above, it is recommended to use the Miswaak at any time of the night and day, because of the general sense of the hadeeth:

السواك مطهرة للفم  مرضاة للرب

“Using the Miswaak cleanses the mouth and pleases Allah.”

ويستحب لتغيير الفم والقيام من النوم والى الصلاة ودخول البيت واجتماع الناس وقراءة القران والحديث ( حاشية الطحطاوي ص٥٣)

And Allah Knows Best
