The ruling on removing socks with every ablution as a precaution

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Also regarding the socks, Shaykh, he says: What is the ruling on removing the socks with every ablution, as a precaution for ritual purity?

Answer:
This is excessive strictness. Praise be to Allah, if he performs ablution and his ritual purity is complete, he wears the covering socks and wipes over them, as a facilitation from Allah the Exalted for His servants. Yes.
