Wiping over the leather boot over the sock

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does one wipe over the leather boot, which is not a leather sock, and pray in it, or not? Since it is not considered a leather sock, and there is a warm cotton sock underneath it?

Answer:
Whoever says that it is considered a leather sock, it is a leather sock. I mean, if the Sunnah named it a boot, naming it a boot does not take it out of being a leather sock. It is a leather sock, and the name does not change the reality. So he wipes over it and prays in it, and praise be to Allah.
