Wiping over socks worn without ritual purity

Question:
This questioner says that he wore socks for prayer and wiped over them for the midday and afternoon prayers, denying that he had done so without purity. It later became clear that he had worn them without ritual purity, and he did not remember until his ablution for the sunset prayer. Does he have to repeat the midday and afternoon prayers?

Answer:
Without a doubt, without a doubt, he must repeat the midday and afternoon prayers, because he did not attain complete ritual purity. He wiped over them while in a state of impurity, and wiping requires that one be in a state of purity. This is based on the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), “Leave them,” meaning the leather socks, meaning after the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) purity was complete. This is one of the conditions for wiping: that they be worn after complete purity. If they are worn without purity, one does not wipe over them.
