The Duration of Wiping Over Socks for a Resident
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Regarding wiping over socks, is it valid to do it more than three times? I perform wudu and wipe, so is it valid, for example, to do it for 'Asr, Maghrib, and 'Isha'?
Answer:
One day and one night. Whoever wears socks while in a state of ritual purity wipes over them for one day and one night, just as with leather socks. So, if a man or a woman wears covering socks after achieving ritual purity, he or she wipes over them for one day and one night. When the day and night are completed, he or she removes them and performs wudu, just as with leather socks. The socks should be made of cotton or wool, provided they are covering. Yes.
