The ruling on removing the leather socks while wiping over them

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A mumble. Is it a condition for wiping over the leather socks that one not remove them, and if one removes them, does the wiping become invalid?

Answer:
It is not a condition for wiping over the leather socks that one not remove them. So, he may remove the leather socks and wash his feet, or he may leave them on and wipe over them, as mentioned previously. The saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) means that wiping is a dispensation (rukhsah) for him to use, and he may choose not to use it. But if he removes them while in a state of ablution, the ablution becomes invalid. The ablution becomes invalid because the object of the wiping has ended with the removal of the leather socks, since the object of the wiping has ended with the removal of the leather socks.
