One who wipes his socks although he was not in a state of tahaarah (purity) when he put them on

Question 2170

For a while I was wiping my socks although I had not been in a state of tahaarah when I put them on, because I did not know about the ruling on this matter. What is the ruling concerning the prayers I offered during that time?

Answer

Praise be to Allah.

You must repeat and make up those prayers which you did when you were wiping your socks although you had not been in a state of tahaarah when you put them on.
