Wiping over the sock with the shoe on

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: I performed wudu, then I put on the socks, and I put on the shoes over them. Then I wanted to perform wudu again. So, do I wipe over the shoe, or do I take it off? Knowing that when I enter the mosque, I take off this shoe and pray without it?

Answer:
No, my brother. You take off what you take off; you do not wipe over it. You wipe over the thing that is fixed and that you do not take off, which is the sock, on the condition that the sock is thick and covers what is beneath it. Yes.
