What are the conditions for wiping over socks?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Okay, the conditions for wiping over socks.
The Shaykh : There are no specific conditions; there is no difference between socks and leather socks. There is no difference between thick, heavy socks and thin socks. There is no difference between any of these matters. What is required for leather socks is required for socks, which is that one wipes for one day and one night if resident, and for three days and their nights if traveling.
The questioner : Meaning, ordinary, thin or thick.
The Shaykh : I have already told you that.
The questioner : May Allah reward you.
