Following a person who makes masah on thin socks

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: If one is in a mosque and the person that leads the prayer makes masah over regular socks. Now is this reason for one beforehand that one should not pray behind him (as normally people wash their feet in the morning and then wipe for the salaah thereafter), or is it essential that one must have seen him wiping before that actual prayer?

A: If you see a person making masah upon his thin socks, then do not follow him in Salaah.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
