The ruling on wiping over one sock when there is a wound on the other leg
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah reward you. The questioner asks: Is it permissible to wipe over one sock if the other leg is exposed and has some wounds, and it is not possible to wear a sock over it?
Answer:
No, this is not permissible. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said to al-Mughirah ibn Shu'bah (may Allah be pleased with him) when he wanted to remove the Messenger’s (peace and blessings be upon him) socks: “Leave them, for I put them on in a state of purity.” However, if a person’s leg is amputated and he has only one leg, he wears a sock over it and wipes over it, because this leg is equivalent to two legs.
