The answer

The issue of the description of the sock upon which wiping is permissible is a matter of (independent reasoning) and a point of contention among scholars. There is no blame upon you if you adhere to a view that has justification, strength, and evidence, such as the view of Ibn Uthaymin and Ibn Taymiyyah. Ibn Uthaymin is qualified to give preference [to a view] based on what the evidence dictates to him. Allah Almighty said: (So ask the people of the message if you do not know).
