Ruling on wiping over leather socks after sleeping

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: If a person wears socks while in a state of ritual purity before sleeping, in order to wipe over them only for the Fajr prayer and not for any other prayers, is this action permissible?

Answer:
Yes, it is permissible. If he wears them while in a state of ritual purity, it is permissible for him to sleep in them and to wipe over them for Fajr or whatever time he wishes. Yes, except regarding the duration, which is one day and one night for a resident, and three days and their nights for a traveler. Yes, and Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and his Companions.
