Qays said: A man asked Sayyiduna Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) about wiping over leather socks (khuffs), and he said: "We used to wipe (over them) in the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)." We asked: Before the revelation of Surah al-Ma'idah or after it? He said: I only accepted Islam after the revelation of Surah al-Ma'idah.
