Wearing a Wooden Shoe

Question
Is it permissible for someone who has made a wooden shoe to wipe over it?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is not permissible to wipe over it, as well as anything that cannot be walked on due to its heaviness: like glass and iron; because the shoe is derived from the lightness of walking in it, such that there is no difference between it and not having it in relation to the usual walking. Refer to: Rad al-Muhtar 1: 174, and Al-Maraqi p130, and Al-Durr al-Mukhtar 1: 176, and Nihayat al-Murad p378-379, and God knows best.
