Rinsing the Mouth Taking a little water into mouth and then spitting it out quickly is not sufficient. It is essential to pass water in mouth over every part, every cavity from lips to the end of throat. {Khulasatul-Fatawa Vol-1, P-21} Water must reach the cavities behind the back teeth, gaps and roots of teeth, all sides of the tongue and the brim of throat. {Durr-e-Mukhtar ma’ Rad-dul-Muhtar, Vol-1, P-254} If you do not have fast, you should gargle as well {it is Sunnah to do so}. If bits of betel nuts or fibers of meat are stuck in the teeth, they must be removed. If there is a fear of harm in case of removing them, removal is exempted. {Fatawa-e-Razaviyyah, Vol-1, P-441, Raza foundation Lahore} Prior to performing Ghusl, the fibers of meat etc. were stuck in the teeth but the one bathing did not feel them and, therefore, offered Salaah having performed Ghusl without removing them; later, he came to know that fibers of meat etc. were stuck in the teeth, it is now Fard for him to remove them and pass water over there. The Salah offered is valid. {Derived from Fatawa-e-Razaviyyah, Vol-1, P-206} If a loose tooth has been fixed with some compound or fastened with wire and water could not reach below compound or wire, it is exempted. {Fatawa-e-Razaviyyah, Vol-2, P-453} The thorough rinsing of mouth is Fard once in Ghusl and such thorough rinsing three times in Wudu is Sunnah.
