Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner asks: What is the ruling on walking in a single sandal?
Answer:
It is not permissible. This is prohibited; the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited it. If the strap of your sandal breaks, you should remove the intact one until you repair the broken one. Then you walk in both, because walking in a single sandal is imitating Satan, and this is not permissible. Yes.
