Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a person wears a leather sock over another leather sock before performing the ablution, the ruling applies to the upper one. Does the upper one have to meet all the conditions for a leather sock? For example, if the upper one has holes in it, but the lower one covers the foot, what is the ruling?
Answer:
Yes, that is sufficient. The important thing is that the conditions are met in either the upper or the lower one. However, if the conditions are not met in either of them, he does not wipe over either one. But if the conditions are met in one of them, he wipes over it. The wiping is done over the upper one, not the lower one, according to the details that have been mentioned.
