Chapter: Regarding one who wipes the top and the bottom of the leather sock

• I heard Ishaq ibn Ibrahim—and a man asked him about wiping the leather sock—say: "The top of the leather sock and its bottom is more beloved to me."

• And I asked Ishaq—another time—about wiping the two leather socks, and he said: "From above and below," and he described it to us.
