He prayed while there was some food residue between his teeth?
Q 2: What is the ruling on praying while there is some food residue between one's teeth? I heard that angels curse anyone who does so, is this true?
A: It is part of Islam that Muslims should concern themselves with cleanliness and hygiene including cleaning the teeth from the remnants of food. However, if a person prays while there are remnants of food between their teeth, their Salah (prayer) is valid.

May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
