Ruling on wiping over a sock worn over another sock
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: If a person wears a sock over a sock, or a shoe over a shoe, is he permitted to wipe over the upper one or the lower one?
Answer:
There is a distinction here, as the jurists have mentioned. If the upper one was worn before the wiping, he wipes over the upper one. But if it was worn after the wiping, he wipes over the lower one and does not wipe over the upper one. The determining factor is the beginning of the wiping.
