وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ، أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ، كِلاَهُمَا عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ، عَنْ بِلاَلٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَسَحَ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ وَالْخِمَارِ ‏.‏ وَفِي حَدِيثِ عِيسَى حَدَّثَنِي الْحَكَمُ حَدَّثَنِي بِلاَلٌ وَحَدَّثَنِيهِ سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيٌّ - يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُسْهِرٍ - عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَقَالَ فِي الْحَدِيثِ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏.‏

Islamic law aims to ease people's different acts of worship such as wiping over the socks, turban, and veil instead of washing one’s feet or wiping one’s head. In this hadith, the noble companion Bilal ibn Rabah explained that the Prophet (ﷺ) sometimes wiped over his socks during ablution instead of washing his feet on the condition that he had worn them after a complete previous ablution as proved in the hadith narrated by Al-Mughirah ibn Shu’ba in the two Sahihs that he said, "When I was with the Prophet (ﷺ) on a journey, I dashed to take off his socks (so he could wash his feet) but he said, 'Leave them, for I wore them after performing ablution.' So he wiped over them." Khuff is a thin leather sock. Likewise, Bilal saw the Prophet wiping over his turban out of ease of his nation's acts of worship..
