Is It Permissible For Men To Establish Prayer Without Wearing Socks?

Is it permissible for men to establish prayer without wearing socks?

It is recorded in sources that the Prophet Muhammad (saw) performed prayer without socks (Abu Dawud, Salat, 91). For this reason, it is permissible to establish prayer without socks. However, if entering masjids without socks is not welcomed due to some reasons such as health, cleanliness, etc., it will be better to obey this. Those who wear socks should wear clean pairs of socks.
