What is the duration for wiping over the khuffayn for someone who put them on after performing ablution for Fajr prayer, and is it permissible to continue wiping over them until the following Fajr?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The duration for wiping over the leather socks (khuffayn) is one day and one night for a resident, and three days and nights for a traveler. The period for wiping begins from the first wipe after nullifying ablution, not from wearing them.
