The ruling on wiping over the two socks in one motion

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner asks: Is wiping over the socks done in one motion, or is each one done separately? That is, does one take water, throw it away, and wipe over the right sock, then take fresh water, throw it away, and wipe over the left sock?

Answer:
The intended act is achieved by any method; if you wipe over the socks or over the leather socks, the purpose is fulfilled. However, the best way is to wet both hands with water, place your right hand on your right foot and your left hand on your left foot on the tips of the toes, then move them down to the calves in one motion and in one go. This is the best and the lesser of the two. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
