Wiping the Heel While Wearing Socks

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: If a man is wearing socks, does he wipe the heel with them?

Answer:
One wipes what the evidence specifies for wiping, which is from the tips of the toes to the shin, the outer surface of the leather socks or the outer surface of the feet. This is what was reported. One does not wipe the sides, the sides of the foot or the heel of the foot. This is what was reported to be wiped.
