Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If I had not found it hard for my followers or the people, I would have ordered them to clean their teeth with Siwak for every prayer."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَوْلاَ أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي أَوْ عَلَى النَّاسِ لأَمَرْتُهُمْ بِالسِّوَاكِ مَعَ كُلِّ صَلاَةٍ
Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Were I not afraid that it would be hard on my followers, I would order them to use the siwak (as obligatory, for cleaning the teeth).
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَوْلاَ أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي لأَمَرْتُهُمْ بِالسِّوَاكِ
When the Apostle of Allaah (sal Allaahu alayhi wa sallam) got up during the night (to pray), he cleansed his mouth with the tooth-stick.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا قَامَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ يَشُوصُ فَاهُ بِالسِّوَاكِ
"Whenever the Messenger of Allah got up for prayer at night to pray Tahajjud (night optional prayer), he would clean his mouth with the tooth stick."
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا قَامَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ يَتَهَجَّدُ يَشُوصُ فَاهُ بِالسِّوَاكِ
Whenever he (the Holy Prophet) got up for prayer during the night, he cleansed his mouth with the tooth-stick.

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا قَامَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ يَشُوصُ فَاهُ بِالسِّوَاكِ
"I said: 'O Mother of the believers! Tell me about the Witr of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' She said: 'We used to prepare his siwak and water for purification, then Allah (SWT) would wake him when He willed to wake him at night. He would use the siwak and perform wudu, then pray eith rak'ahs; not sitting until the eighth rak'ah, when he would sit and remember Allah (SWT) and call upon Him. Then he would say the taslim loud enough for us to hear.'"
عَنْ وَتْرِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَتْ كُنَّا نُعِدُّ لَهُ سِوَاكَهُ وَطُهُورَهُ فَيَبْعَثُهُ اللَّهُ لِمَا شَاءَ أَنْ يَبْعَثَهُ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَيَتَسَوَّكُ وَيَتَوَضَّأُ وَيُصَلِّي ثَمَانِ رَكَعَاتٍ لاَ يَجْلِسُ فِيهِنَّ إِلاَّ عِنْدَ الثَّامِنَةِ فَيَجْلِسُ فَيَذْكُرُ اللَّهَ ﷻ وَيَدْعُو ثُمَّ يُسَلِّمُ تَسْلِيمًا يُسْمِعُنَا
Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I have told you repeatedly to use the Siwak. (The Prophet ﷺ put emphasis on the use of the Siwak.)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَكْثَرْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ فِي السِّوَاكِ
I asked A'isha what Allah's Apostle ﷺ did first when he entered his house, and she replied: He used tooth-stick (first of all).
سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ قُلْتُ بِأَىِّ شَىْءٍ كَانَ يَبْدَأُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا دَخَلَ بَيْتَهُ قَالَتْ بِالسِّوَاكِ
I went to the Apostle ﷺ and found one end of the tooth-stick upon his tongue (i. e. he was rinsing his mouth).
دَخَلْتُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَطَرَفُ السِّوَاكِ عَلَى لِسَانِهِ
"My father told me: 'I heard 'Aishah say, (narrating) from the Prophet ﷺ: "Siwak is a means of purification for the mouth and is pleasing to the Lord."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ السِّوَاكُ مَطْهَرَةٌ لِلْفَمِ مَرْضَاةٌ لِلرَّبِّ
Five human urges are from the fiṭrah (natural human instinct or disposition)
Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Five practices are characteristics of the fiṭrah: (1) circumcision, (2) shaving the pubic region, (3) plucking the arm pits, (4) clipping the nails, and (5) cutting the mustaches."
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رِوَايَةً الْفِطْرَةُ: «خَمْسٌ» أَوْ «خَمْسٌ مِنَ الْفِطْرَةِ: (١) الْخِتَانُ (٢) وَالاِسْتِحْدَادُ (٣) وَنَتْفُ الإِبْطِ (٤) وَتَقْلِيمُ الأَظْفَارِ (٥) وَقَصُّ الشَّارِبِ۔»
I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying. "Five practices are characteristics of the Fitra: circumcision, shaving the pubic hair, cutting the moustaches short, clipping the nails, and depilating the hair of the armpits."
سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ الْفِطْرَةُ خَمْسٌ الْخِتَانُ وَالاِسْتِحْدَادُ وَقَصُّ الشَّارِبِ وَتَقْلِيمُ الأَظْفَارِ وَنَتْفُ الآبَاطِ
The Prophet ﷺ said "Five things are in accordance with Al Fitra (i.e. the tradition of prophets): to be circumcised, to shave the pelvic region, to pull out the hair of the armpits, to cut short the moustaches, and to clip the nails.'
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ الْفِطْرَةُ خَمْسٌ الْخِتَانُ وَالاِسْتِحْدَادُ وَنَتْفُ الإِبْطِ وَقَصُّ الشَّارِبِ وَتَقْلِيمُ الأَظْفَارِ
Ten human urges are from the fiṭrah (natural human instinct or disposition)
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Ten are the acts according to fitra: (1) clipping the mustache, (2) letting the beard grow, (3) using the siwāk/miswāk (toothstick), (4) snuffing water in the nose ˹for cleaning˺, (5) cutting the nails, (6) washing the finger joints, (7) plucking the hair under the armpits, (8) shaving the pubic hair, and (9) cleaning one's private parts with water.
The narrator said: I have forgotten the tenth, but it may have been (10) rinsing the mouth.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «عَشْرٌ مِنَ الْفِطْرَةِ: (١) قَصُّ الشَّارِبِ (٢) وَإِعْفَاءُ اللِّحْيَةِ (٣) وَالسِّوَاكُ (٤) وَاسْتِنْشَاقُ الْمَاءِ (٥) وَقَصُّ الأَظْفَارِ (٦) وَغَسْلُ الْبَرَاجِمِ (٧) وَنَتْفُ الإِبْطِ (٨) وَحَلْقُ الْعَانَةِ (٩) وَانْتِقَاصُ الْمَاءِ۔»
قَالَ زَكَرِيَّاءُ قَالَ مُصْعَبٌ وَنَسِيتُ الْعَاشِرَةَ إِلاَّ أَنْ تَكُونَ (١٠) الْمَضْمَضَةَ
