What is the ruling on one who prayed while having some wax on his foot?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A man says: I prayed, and when I finished my prayer, I found some wax on my foot that prevented the water from reaching the skin. What is required of him? And what is the ruling in his case?

Answer:
He is required to remove the wax, perform the ablution again from the beginning, and repeat the prayer, because his first ablution was not complete; it was deficient, because the water did not reach what was under the wax. He has to remove it, then perform a complete ablution, and then repeat the prayer.
