The Wudhu Socks 101

1. Are The Wudhu Socks Shari’ah-compliant?

Yes, The Wudhu Socks are 100% Shari’ah-compliant. They have been certified by Islamic scholars with official fatwas, ensuring they meet all the requirements for performing ablution (wudhu). They allow water to flow off your limbs as required and are ideal for daily and travel use.

2. How are The Wudhu Socks different from regular waterproof socks?

The Wudhu Socks are specifically designed for Muslims performing ablution. They combine waterproof technology with breathable material, ensuring comfort for prolonged use. Unlike regular waterproof socks, they meet the specific requirements for wudhu, providing the perfect balance of durability, usability, and spiritual purpose.

3. Can The Wudhu Socks be used for daily wear?

Absolutely! The Wudhu Socks are made with high-quality materials, including a bamboo inner layer for thermal regulation and moisture-wicking properties, making them ideal for all-day wear. They fit comfortably in most types of shoes, including formal shoes, sneakers, and boots.

4. How Should I Wash and Care for The Wudhu Socks?

To maintain the performance and longevity of The Wudhu Socks, avoid using fabric softeners as they can reduce breathability and waterproof effectiveness. Wash the socks with a mild, antibacterial detergent without softeners to control odors and keep them fresh. Detergent pods may be used as long as they don’t include softeners and are fully dissolved before washing. Always wash on a gentle cycle or by hand, using cool or lukewarm water, and air-dry the socks to preserve their durability—avoid high heat or tumble drying.

From Vision to Phenonemon - The Wudhu Socks Story

Discover the journey of The Wudhu Socks, from a simple idea in a university library to a global phenomenon embraced by Muslims in over 55 countries. Explore the milestones that shaped our story of innovation, faith, and perseverance.

January, 2019

The Spark of an Idea

In 2019, Co-Founder Umar Khan faced a challenge while making ablution in his university library’s restroom. The process was cumbersome, sparking the idea to modernize the traditional leather khuff into socks that would make ablution easier anywhere. Umar teamed up with two close friends, and after pooling their savings and overcoming countless setbacks, The Wudhu Socks were born.

June, 2019

Faith Meets Innovation

With the first prototype in hand, the founders flew to Darul Uloom Karachi to seek a fatwa (Islamic ruling). This was a pivotal moment, as the official Shari’ah compliance approval underscored the religious validity of The Wudhu Socks and set the stage for their launch.

December 2019

First Orders, First Milestones

Pooling their savings, the founders placed their first order of 1,200 pairs and officially launched The Wudhu Socks in December 2019. The first order was placed by Mrs. Atif from Karachi on December 24, 2019, followed by the first international order from Niaz Khan in Queens, New York, on January 19, 2020. These milestones marked the beginning of a journey that would soon span the globe.

Going Global: Trusted by Muslims Worldwide

The Wudhu Socks have since been used by Muslims in over 55 countries across Europe, Africa, Asia, North America, and Australia. They are trusted by pilgrims during Hajj and Umrah and have become an essential companion for Muslims in their daily lives and spiritual journeys.
