Praise be to Allaah.
Shaykh Ibn Baaz (may Allaah have mercy on
him) was asked about using toothpaste whilst
fasting. He said: there is nothing wrong with
that so long as one is careful to avoid
swallowing any of it, just as it is prescribed in
Islam for the fasting person to use the siwaak
(tooth-stick)
Fataawa al-Shaykh Ibn Baaz, 4/247
Shaykh Muhammad al-Saalih ibn ‘Uthaymeen
said:
… This leads us to the question: Is it
permissible to use a toothbrush and toothpaste
whilst fasting or not?
The answer is that it is permitted, but it is
preferable not to use them because the
toothpaste is too strong and may go down into
the throat. Instead of doing that during the day,
one should do it at night.
Al-Sharh al-Mumti’ by Ibn ‘Uthaymeen, 6/407,
408
