Question:
Is it permissible to wipe over socks? And what are the conditions that must be met?
Answer:
Yes, it is permissible to wipe over socks, provided that they are thick, meaning they cover the ankles and what is below them, and that they are thick, meaning dense and not transparent, and not torn with large holes, meaning they cover what is beneath them. In this case, it is permissible for him to wipe over them; because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) wiped over socks and leather sandals, and this is the position of Imam Ahmad (may Allah have mercy on him). May Allah reward you with good.
