Wiping Over the Socks

What is the meaning of khuffayn (leather socks) and jawarab (socks)? 

"Khuffayn" and "jawarab" are terms used in the context of Islamic jurisprudence (Fiqh) to refer to specific types of footwear or leg coverings, especially in relation to the ritual ablution (wudu) and other purification practices.

1. Khuffayn (خفين)

• Meaning: "Khuffayn" refers to leather socks or leather foot coverings.
• Usage in Fiqh: In Islamic tradition, wearing leather socks is recognized as a way to fulfill the requirements of wiping over the feet during ablution (wudu). This is particularly relevant for Muslims when performing daily prayers or other acts of worship that necessitate ritual purity. The use of khuffayn simplifies the process of ablution by allowing a person to wipe over the socks instead of washing the feet directly.

2. Jawarab (جَوَارَب)

• Meaning:"Jawarab" is a general term for socks or stockings.
• Usage in Fiqh: The term "jawarab" encompasses a broader category of foot coverings, including regular socks made from various materials such as cotton, wool, or synthetic fabrics. In the context of ablution, wiping over jawarab is not typically allowed; instead, the feet must be washed directly. Unlike khuffayn, which has specific conditions and permissions for wiping over them, regular socks do not serve the same function in Islamic purification rituals.

In summary, "khuffayn" specifically refers to leather socks or foot coverings that have certain allowances for wiping over them during ablution, while "jawarab" is a more general term for socks or stockings without the same allowances for wiping in the context of Islamic purification practices.

Ruling on Wiping Over Khuffayn and Jawarab in Hanafi Fiqh

The ruling on wiping over khuffayn (leather socks) and jawarab (regular socks) is established as a Sunnah in Hanafi Fiqh, derived from the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and supported by evidence from the Quran and Hadith.

Evidence from the Hadith

The Sunnah of wiping over khuffayn is supported by the hadith narrated by Al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah (may Allah be pleased with him), in which he stated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) made wudhu, and when Al-Mughirah moved to remove his khuffayn, the Prophet instructed him to leave them on. The Prophet clarified that his feet were in a state of purity when he wore the khuffayn, and he proceeded to wipe over them.

Evidence from the Quran

The legislative basis for wiping over the khuffayn is found in the Quran, specifically in the verse: "O you who believe, when you stand for prayer, wash your faces and hands up to the elbows, and wipe your heads and feet up to the ankles" (Quran 5:6). The term "wa arjulikum" refers to 'and your feet.' There are two valid ways of reciting this phrase – "wa arjulakum" (wash your feet) and "wa arjulikum" (wipe your feet).

Recitation Variations

1. Reciting as 'wa arjulakum': With a fatha on the lam, linking it to 'wa wujuhakum' ('and your faces'), indicating washing the feet during ablution.
2. Reciting as 'wa arjulikum': With a kasra on the lam, linking it to 'bi ru'usikum' ('your heads'), indicating wiping over the feet during ablution.

The choice between washing and wiping is clarified by the Sunnah. The Prophet (peace be upon him) would wash his feet when uncovered and wipe over them when covered by khuffayn.

Mutawatir Sunnah

The practice of wiping over khuffayn is a mutawatir Sunnah, meaning it is reported by a large number of people in each generation, reaching us reliably from the Prophet (peace be upon him). Imam Ahmad attests to its widespread acceptance, stating, "There is no aversion in my heart to wiping. There are forty ahadeeth with regards to it from the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and his Companions."

This consensus and continuity in practice reinforce the legitimacy and significance of wiping over khuffayn as a Sunnah in Hanafi Fiqh.
