Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: I am a soldier and I put on socks while in a state of purity every day throughout the year. So, do I wipe over the socks?
Answer:
A soldier or anyone else, if he puts on socks while in a state of purity after a complete ablution, and the socks cover the foot and are loose on the foot, covering it, he wipes over them like the leather socks: one day and one night for a resident, and three days and three nights for a traveler, on the condition that the sock covers the foot, and on the condition that he puts on the socks after attaining complete purity, putting them on while he is in a state of ablution.
