Wiping Over the Socks: 1. If someones Wudhu, gets nullified, then, when performing a subsequent Wudhu, it is allowed to wipe over the socks with wet hands, instead of washing both feet on condition that the socks were put on after washing the feet in the first Wudhu or before the same is nullified. 2. A traveler may avail himself of this privilege continuously for three consecutive days and nights (72 hours), but a resident may do so for only one day and one night continuously (24 hours). How Wiping Over the Socks is Done: Wiping is done according to the tradition of the Prophet (peace be upon him), as follows: After removing the shoes, wet hands are passed only over the upper surface of socks without the need to wipe the bottom parts. When the Wiping Privilege Ceases: The wiping privilege becomes invalid in the event that one or more of the following cases occur: 1. When the maximum timings allowed as discussed earlier lapse. 2. The moment the socks are removed. 3. When any of the cases requiring Ghusl occur.
