The duration of wiping over the leather socks if the traveler returns to his hometown
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If I travel and put on the leather socks and wipe over them for two days, then I return to my hometown, does the wiping end immediately, or do I complete it until the third day?
Answer:
No, no. It is a recommended practice (sunnah) that when one returns to being a resident, the wiping ends, even if he has not completed the three days. If you return, you become a resident; you do not wipe for three days. Rather, you take them off, wash your feet, and start over again. Yes.
