Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this is also one of the questioners asking. He says: What is the method for wiping over socks and leather boots? Does one wipe the right foot with the right hand and the left foot with the left hand, or does one wipe with the right hand, or with both hands?
Answer:
All of it is permissible. The important thing is that he wipes the outer surface of the boot from his toes to his calves in whatever manner he chooses. Yes. However, if he places his right hand, wet with water, on his right foot, and his left hand, wet with water, on his left foot, and moves them from the toes to the calves, then this is the complete manner. Yes.
