Is it permissible for a musaafir to make masah on his normal shoes?

Answer

It is not permissible in normal situations to make masah on shoes. While travelling, people undergo many inconveniences which they tolerate with patience. But for the sake of the Deen, they present a variety of baseless excuses. We have travelled many many thousands of miles all over the world in all types of conveyances and in many different places. We never saw the need to make masah on shoes. Masah should be made on khuffain. If one is not wearing khuffain, then remove the shoes and wash the feet.
