The Shaykh:
You have a choice. If you wish, you may remove the socks and wash your feet. If you wish, you may wipe over the socks, provided the known conditions are met, such as the obligatory ablution and the other conditions. You may wipe over them for one day and one night if you are a resident, or for three days and three nights if you are a traveler.

Yes.
