834. Ibn 'Abbās narrated that he heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: "If the Muhrim cannot find an Izār, then let him wear pants, and if he cannot find sandals, then let him wear Khuff." (Saḥīh)
Qutaibah narrated to us (another chain) with similar meaning. There
are narrations on this topic from Ibn 'Umar and Jābir.
Abū 'Eisā said: This Hadīth is Hasan Ṣaḥīḥ, and it is acted upon according to some of the people of knowledge. They say if the Muḥrim does not find an Izār then he wears pants, and if he does not find sandals then he wears Khuff. This is the view of Aḥmad. Some of them held their view in accordance with the Hadīth of Ibn 'Umar from the Prophet ﷺ: "If he does not find sandals then let him wear Khuff, and let him cut them below the ankles." This is the saying of Sufyān Ath-Thawrī and Ash-Shāfi'ī (and Mālik said accordingly).

Commentary
Most of the people of knowledge and religious scholars say that if the Muḥrim (who has assumed Iḥrām) does not have shoes he can wear socks after cutting them up to the ankles. According to Imām Aḥmad one wear socks without cutting them but this point of view is not correct. In a previous chapter in the narration of Ibn 'Umar it is clearly mentioned to cut the socks up to the ankles.
