611. [Shahr bin Hawshab said: "I saw Jarīr bin 'Abdullāh performing Wudū' and wiping over his Khuff." He said: "So I asked him: 'What is that?' He said: 'I saw the Prophet ﷺ performing Wudū' and he wiped over his Khuff.' So I said to him: 'Before Al-Mā'idah or after Al-Mā'idah?' He said: 'I did not accept Islām until after Al-Mā'idah.'"] (Hasan)

Commentary
Some people, due to the Verse of Sūrat Al-Mā'idah about ablution, are uncertain that perhaps wiping over the leather socks is not correct, because the Verse of ablution commands that the feet should be washed. But this Hadīth is decisive regarding this issue that the Prophet ﷺ used to wipe over the leather socks even after the commandment of washing the feet had been revealed. So the rule of wiping over the socks is established and not abrogated. See no. 94
