Rulings on Wiping Over Socks
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Abu Yusuf, says: We are in the winter days and we wear socks, and the rulings related to wiping over them are hidden from many people. What are the most prominent of these rulings that are narrated?
Answer:
Yes. For wiping over socks, it is required that they be thick, meaning they cover what is beneath them. If they are transparent, or torn and ripped such that part of the leg is visible, then wiping over them is not permissible. One only wipes over sound socks that cover the leg, reaching from the ankles and below, just as it is required for the leather socks (khuff) to cover the ankles and what is below them. Yes.
