Wearing sandals by a person in ihram
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for a person in ihram to wear what is called a sandal?
The Shaykh:
What is a sandal?
The questioner:
A shoe.
The Shaykh:
He wears whatever shoes he wishes, whatever is available to him. I say that the one who does not find the two leather socks wears them, which indicates that the two leather socks are worn regardless of their type; they have no specific limit. And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and his Companions.
