Question:
Your Eminence the Shaykh! In truth, many of the brothers are asking about leather socks and stockings: is everything else worn besides them analogous to them?
Answer:
Anything made for the feet that one wipes over, whether it is called a sock, a leather sock, or something else, provided it covers the ankles and the feet, and is worn on the feet to protect against heat, cold, and the like, may be wiped over, whether it is made of leather, wool, hair, or cotton, as long as it covers the feet and the ankles. Yes.
