The ruling on wiping over shoes worn over socks

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A man put on socks while in a state of wudu, then put on shoes. After that, he wanted to perform wudu, so he wiped over the shoes. What is the ruling on this? Is the prayer valid?

Answer:
Yes, the ruling on this is permissible. He may wipe over the socks and over the shoes he wore on top of them. There is nothing wrong with that. The prayer is valid, if Allah wills, as long as the socks cover the two feet. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
