Calculating the duration of wiping over leather socks
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
And if the Shaykh is present, may Allah preserve him, if a man puts on his socks, then falls ill for four months, what about the wudu'? If a man puts on his socks, then twenty-four hours pass, and he does not wait for the wudu',
The Shaykh:
When does the duration begin? If a person wipes and remains in his state of wudu' for the day he puts on the socks, he remains in his state of wudu' for twenty-four hours, or perhaps more, may Allah will it. The duration does not begin. The duration does not begin except from the wiping after the removal of the impurity, yes.
