118. It was narrated from Jarîr bin 'Abdullâh that he performed Wudû and wiped over his Khuffs. It was said to him: "Are you wiping (over your Khuffs)?" He said: "I saw the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ wiping (over his Khuffs)." The companions of 'Abdullâh liked what Jarîr said, because Jarîr became Muslim shortly before the Prophet ﷺ died.[2] (Sahih)
118 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ هَمَّامٍ، عَنْ جَرِيرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ: أَنَّهُ تَوَضَّأَ وَمَسَحَ عَلَى خُفَّيْهِ فَقِيلَ لَهُ: أَتَمْسَحُ؟ فَقَالَ: «قَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَمْسَحُ» وَكَانَ أَصْحَابُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يُعْجِبُهُمْ قَوْلُ جَرِيرٍ وَكَانَ إِسْلَامُ جَرِيرٍ قَبْلَ مَوْتِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَسِيرٍ

1. Wiping over footgear (Khuff) is an Islamically legislated practice according to people of the Sunnah. The Shi'ites assert that, under all circumstances, it is compulsory to wash one's bare feet. The Khawarij are in agreement with Shi'ites regarding this issue. People of the Sunnah, on the other hand, hold that it is permissible to wipe over footgear under certain conditions, which is the correct view in the matter. 2. Taking into consideration various verses of the Holy Qur'an and sayings of the Prophet ﷺ, one must logically arrive at two conclusions: First, if the feet are bare, they should be washed; and secondly, if they are beneath socks or other footgear, then those socks or footgear may be wiped. In this way, all proofs from the Qur'an and the Sunnah will be put into practice. To believe the notion of the Shi'ites and the Khawarj is to negate many authentic 'Aḥādīth', which is a clear instance of misguidance.
