Is wiping over the socks done with both hands?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: Your Eminence, Shaykh 'Abd al-'Aziz ibn Baz (may Allah grant you understanding), I hope you will inform me about how to wipe over the socks, and whether it is done with both hands, or with the right hand only, or do I wipe the right with the right and the left with the left? May Allah reward you with good.

A: The Sunnah is to wipe the right with the right hand and the left with the left hand; based on his statement (peace and blessings be upon him):
When you perform ablution, start on the right.إذا توضأتم فابدؤوا بميامنكم
Sunan Ibn Majah 402
It was narrated by the people of the Sunan with a sound chain, and success is from Allah.
