Shaafi’ Wudhu Masaail (12)

3.5. Washing the Feet

1. To wash both feet including the ankles is the fifth fardh of wudhu.
2. If the feet become washed by themselves, such as by walking in a pool of water, the fardh will be discharged.
3. If a person is wearing leather socks (khuffain), instead of washing the feet masah will suffice, although washing is afzal (more meritorious).
4. If during wudhu a doubt occurs whether one washed a certain part of the body then that part has to be washed again and all the limbs following it in wudhu should also be washed.
5. If the doubt of washing or not washing a limb occurs only after completing the wudhu then this doubt should be totally ignored.
