[Machine] We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when al-Mughirah ibn Shu'bah entered, wearing two khuffs (leather socks). He was the first person I saw wearing khuffs in Islam. The people began to wipe over them and asked, "What is this?" They were told, "These are khuffs." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, you will have many khuffs." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what shall we do regarding ablution for prayer?" He said, "You may either wipe over them or perform ablution upon them."  

الطبراني:١٧٧٠٥حَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ التُّسْتَرِيُّ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُصَفَّى ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْقَطَّانُ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ قُرَّةَ عَنْ مَعْقِلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ قَالَ
