The Ruling on Drying the Limbs During Wudu

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
A question from Dr. Bakari, in which he says: Honorable Shaykh, if I am wearing socks for wiping over them, and the time for wiping has not ended, and I perform wudu and wipe over the socks, and then I dry my face and hands immediately, and I want to renew the wiping over the socks, so I take off the sock and wash only my foot, does the purity remain valid and the wiping over the socks be renewed? May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh:
If the limbs have dried after the wudu, then the time has passed. But if they have not dried, then the time for the wudu is still remaining; complete it, and your wudu is valid. Yes.

The questioner:
So it is not permissible to dry the limbs during the wudu, but one dries them after the wudu?

The Shaykh:
How does he dry them?

The questioner:
During the wudu, he washed his hands, then dried them, then completed his wudu.

The Shaykh:
How did he dry them?

The questioner:
With his mouth.

The Shaykh:
No, he does not dry them, he does not dry them; he completes his wudu first. When he is finished, he dries his limbs.

The presenter:
Yes, may Allah reward you
