The ruling on wiping over socks that do not cover the ankles

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a type of socks, called shurabat, has become widespread among people, and they do not cover the ankles. Is it permissible to wipe over them during wudu'?

Answer:
No, the ankle is supposed to be washed, so if they do not cover it, it is not permissible to wipe over them, because they do not cover what is required to be covered.
