The questioner : Shaykh, may Allah bless you. Sometimes a person among us may need to put on the sock before washing the second foot. So if a man comes who has done this, needing this matter, and then prays.
The Shaykh : And what do they need? Explain the necessity to us?
The questioner : ... For example, in the issue of tying.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : And if he takes off the socks, his foot would get dirty in a dirty place, where the floor is dirty, so he puts it in directly?
The Shaykh : No, no, it is not possible. He washes the foot and then puts it on the sock, not on the ground.
The questioner : Shaykh, this happens often with workers.
The Shaykh : No, but look at the hardship, otherwise it becomes a matter of what?
The questioner : It gets very wet.
The Shaykh : If it gets very wet, may Allah bless you, then putting it in the sock is more severe.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Even if you put in the foot while it is wet, the inside gets wetter.
The questioner : We see this often with workers doing this; they wash and then put it on directly.
The Shaykh : Correct, it is said to him: do not do it.
The questioner : If he did it, do we tell him to repeat the prayer?
The Shaykh : If Allah wills, we do not say to repeat the prayer. We do not see it, and we do not dare to say this.
