Wa Alaikumus Salam,

There are countless benefits in using a Miswaak.

It is permissible to take for a Miswaak of all types of tree twigs, which
are not harmful or poisonous. Here are a few types of Miswaak. Peelo tree, Olive (zaitoon), tree, Bitam, Any bitter tree, Walnut tree.

Abu Hurairah (R) said:"I have used the Miswaak before sleeping, after rising, before eating and after eating, ever since I heard the Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) advising so'." (Musnad Ahmad)


Regarding acne, we would suggest that you consult a specialist. They can advise you better medically. Also, regular Du'aa, humbleness and acceptance of the Will of Allah (swt) are essentials.

And Allah Ta'aala knows best

Maulana Muhammad
