It says in Mawsoo’ah al-Fiqhiyyah (Summarised from 39/279-280):
Issue: How to Wipe Over the Khuff (or Shoes and Socks):
The Hanafees were of the view that the measurement of three fingers must be wiped over. They must be wiped over once (not thrice). One starts at the bottom of his toes and carries on wiping until he reaches his leg (ankle). One must place his right hand on his right foot and left hand on his left foot and wipe them both simultaneously. It is better to space out his fingers so that the water can spread over his foot.
The Maalikees were of the view that the whole foot must be wiped, what is above and below it. Besides this, the description is the same as above.
The Shaafi’ees gave the same description as the Hanafees however they stated that the measurement is left up to what is customary. So what is considered as wiping within the customs is sufficient.
The Hanbalees had the same description as well, however they considered wiping as being acceptable when the majority of the foot is wiped over.
