It is narrated from Hammam bin al-Harith that Sayyiduna Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) performed ablution from a vessel and wiped over his leather socks. The people said: You wipe over your leather socks? He said: I have seen the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) wiping over the leather socks.
This hadith greatly pleased the companions of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), and they used to say that Sayyiduna Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) accepted Islam after the revelation of Surah al-Ma'idah.
