Wiping over a bandage and wearing socks afterward

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: A man has a cast that he has placed on the toes of his foot. When he wants to perform wudu', he washes the exposed parts and wipes over the cast. The question is:

The Shaykh:
The toes of his foot, the toes that are on the foot, the toes of his legs. Yes.

The questioner:
And he placed it on the toes of his leg. So when he wants to perform wudu', he washes the exposed parts and wipes over the cast. His question is: Is it permissible for him to wear socks after that wudu' and wipe over them for a day and a night?

The Shaykh:
No. If he wipes over the cast, he completes the wiping over the cast. He started wiping over the cast, so he wipes over it for a day and a night if he is a resident, and for three days and their nights if he is a traveler. As for if he wore the socks before he started wiping, he wipes over the socks. Yes.
