Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A man performed wudu' and wiped over his leather socks. During the period of wiping, he removed the socks and prayed with his wudu' while in the state of wiping. Is his prayer valid?
Answer:
No, it is not valid, because he removed what was wiped over, and the foot became exposed. When the foot is exposed, its obligation is ghusl, and wiping is not sufficient. It is a condition for wiping that what is wiped over remains on the foot. If he removes it, the wiping becomes invalid due to the removal of the excuse. Yes.
