What is the ruling on wiping over thin socks?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Brother Abdullah Sarur also asks: What is the ruling on wiping over thin socks?
Answer: The socks must be covering and thick. If they are thin such that the skin is visible through them, revealing the nature of the skin, whether it is black or red or the like, then it is not permissible to wipe over them; because their ruling is the ruling of non-existence, their presence is like their absence. So the socks must be covering and thick, concealing what is underneath them. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you.
