The questioner : Regarding wiping over the leather socks: three days for the traveler, and one day and night for the resident. We have heard a report from 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the traveler wipes for a week. Is this report authentic?

So you must follow what the Sunnah has established and leave aside opinions, no matter who their source is, as long as you have a foundation from the Sunnah. That is what is relied upon, and that is what you will be asked about on the Day of Resurrection, as Allah (Mighty and Majestic) said:[Al-Qasas 28:65].
