Question

Assalaamu alaikum. Is it allowed to make massah on socks made of nylon or cotton etc? what is the rulings?

Answer

Wa alaikumus salaam. It is not allowed. Namaz performed with such a wudhu is not valid. It is also not allowed to perform namaz behind an imaam who makes massah on ordinary socks instead of washing feet.
