Is it a condition for the validity of tawaf that ritual impurity be removed if it affects the body?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. During the tawaf of ifadah, my feet became ritually impure, so I wiped them on the floor and completed my tawaf. Is my tawaf valid?

Answer:
No. If your feet became ritually impure, you must wash away the impurity. You must wash the impurity with water, and then you must restart the tawaf. This applies only to the leather socks. The leather socks are what are wiped with dust. As for the foot and the hand, wiping them is not sufficient. You must wash them. It is like a garment. Yes.
