12-54 (The compiler of the book narrated) that his father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Muhammad ibn Yahya al-Attar quoted Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Yahya, on the authority of Ibrahim ibn Ishaq, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Isa, on the authority of Ubaydullah al-Dihqan, on the authority of Durost, on the authority of Abdullah ibn Sin’an that Aba Abdullah as-Sadiq (MGB) said, “
There are twelve characteristics in brushing the teeth with a toothbrush that is a recommendable practice. It cleans the mouth, improves vision; pleases the Merciful Lord; whitens the teeth; removes the mouth’s bad smell; strengthens the gums; stimulates the appetite; alleviates the phlegm; improves memory; increases the good deeds; and makes the angels happy.”
12-54 حدثنا أبي رضي الله عنه قال: حدثنا محمد بن يحيى العطار، عن محمد بن أحمد بن يحيى، عن إبراهيم بن إسحاق، عن محمد بن عيسى، عن عبيدالله الدهقان، عن درست، عن عبد الله بن سنان، عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام قال
في السواك اثنتا عشرة خصلة هو من السنة، ومطهرة للفم، ومجلاة للبصر، ويرضي الرحمن، ويبيض الاسنان، ويذهب بالحفر، ويشد اللثة، ويشهي الطعام، ويذهب بالبلغم، ويزيد في الحفظ، ويضاعف به الحسنات، وتفرح به الملائكة
