Abdur Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera – Q&A Time Frame for Wiping Masah on Socks

Is there

a timeframe between doing Waldo and putting on muscle socks?

Previously? I prayed Salaat then remembered I wanted to wear the

socks or put them on. Is that okay? Good question. So, so to

understand this question, the best thing to do first is to understand

how my socks work, what's their function in terms of the deal in

terms of the jurisprudence of it, what is their function, their

function is that they act as a barrier, they act as a barrier for

the impurity to reach the feet. When I say impurity, I'm talking

about the state of impurity when a person breaks, they will do

nullifies they will do, their whole body becomes impure, not

physically, there's no physical impurity necessarily on the body,

just a state that you can't pray will do with that state. So

essentially, what what the socks do the leather socks or the wudu

socks do is they prevent that impurity from going on to the

feet. So this tells us a number of things, number one,

for if they're going to stop the purity from going to the feet, it

means that your feet can't be impure, you can't be impure before

you start, which means that if you're not on wudu, there's no

point putting them on, because it's not going to prevent

anything, because impurities already on your feet, or in your

feet as is in the rest of your body as well. Right? So now since

it's a barrier, that means it's going to start working from when

you have an impurity. So in your question, when you're asking that,

if I put it on after doing we'll do an after my prayer, that would

be completely fine. As long as you haven't broken you will do. So

essentially, they can be worn at any time that you're on will do.

And that will do could have happened just before it or maybe

an hour before it even 10 hours before it if you can keep your

will do for that long idea is that you're in full purity before you

put them on. So then they act as a barrier. Because if you're already

employed anyone works. So if you do, then you make solid, then you

put it on and you're still on Hulu, then that's completely fine.

You're you can do that. The time of the 24 hours or 72 hours if

you're a traveler starts from when not from when you put it on, but

from when you actually break your will do because that's when it

starts functioning. Because remember its function is to

prevent the impurity from alighting on to the feet. That's

why you just do masa and the impurity gets lifted. So hopefully

that's very clear.
