Wiping over the sandals and socks
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
And likewise, does Shaykh Abu Mutaqqin advise regarding al-Na'im, and what is in his hands regarding that?
The Shaykh:
No, one does not wipe over the sandals unless there are socks underneath them. If there are covering socks under the sandals, he wipes over the sandals and wipes over the short leather socks (khuffayn). He wipes over them on the condition that there is a covering sock underneath. As for just sandals, he does not wipe over them. What is it? What was reported is that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) wiped over the socks and over the sandals, over the socks and over the sandals, right?
Another questioner:
I swear to him, Sultan ibn Hassan, when the author presented it, that the questioner is in a state of ritual impurity; we ask and we say.
The Shaykh:
The copy I have does not contain al-Tirmidhi; it contains al-Nasa'i and Ibn Khuzaymah, but you have this, which requires...
Another questioner:
A matter of extreme severity in a slanted verse.
The Shaykh:
Hmm?
Another questioner:
It came from a mountain. The side regarding the wiping.
The Shaykh:
No, some scholars interpreted it this way, but the majority do not; they say this is a case of proximity, a case of proximity, just as you say "this is a scorpion's burrow" or "this is a ruined scorpion's burrow." Why "burrow"? Even though it is a description of the burrow with a damma, they said it is because of proximity to the word it is attached to, which is "scorpion." So the Arabs use the kasrah for the sake of proximity, and that is all.
Another questioner:
If, may He be exalted, the two ends that are underneath them are open. Where is the space?
The Shaykh:
Yes, if he wipes over the upper part, he must cut it off. So if he takes it off, the wiping is invalid.
Another questioner:
The one in which he prays.
The Shaykh:
Yes, there is no problem.
