The answer

What the questioner asked about is not a conflation of madhhabs. The Hanafis permit wiping over leather socks (khuffayn) and thick socks (jawrab), and they rule that a small amount of impurity is excused (that which is the size of a dirham or less). Therefore, your prayer is valid if you wiped over the leather socks or thick socks and prayed, and the impurity on your clothes was the size of a dirham or less. However, if the socks were thin, the prayer is not valid according to the Hanafis and Hanbalis.
