Sealskniz
Waterproof Socks- A
Comfortable Alternative to Khuffs are
Shariah compliant for making masah (i.e. instead of washing the
feet during wudhu, it is permissible to pass moist hands over such socks, or Masah
alal Khuffain). SealSkinz® socks
have a patented fabric structure of three highly engineered layers including a
membrane capable of allowing perspiration to escape while not allowing water to
penetrate. Each sock is high-pressure tested to make sure there are no leaks.

breathable, close-fitting sock.

The Ulema have strictly disallowed masah on regular socks and have stipulated
in detail in what specific types of socks masah
is permitted. Sealskinz® and Dexshell® are the
only two manufacturer of non-leather socks that we know of that meets the strict
criteria of socks over which masah
can be performed on. (see Fatwa of Mufti
Desai below).
