Zujajat al-Masabih 635Volume 1

English

And from Jabir, Allah be pleased with him, who said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a man who was performing ablution and washing his socks. He nudged him with his foot and said: 'This is not the Sunnah. We were commanded to wipe over them like this,' and he passed his hands over his socks." [Narrated by Al-Tabarani in Al-Awsat] In another narration, he showed him with his hands from the front of the socks to the base of the shin once, spreading his fingers apart. And in another narration from Ibn al-Mundhir, from Umar ibn al-Khattab, that he wiped over his socks until the marks of his fingers appeared on the socks.
