42. Ibn 'Abbās narrated: "The Prophet ﷺ performed Wudū' one time (for each limb)." (Ṣaḥīḥ)
[Abū 'Eisā] said: There are narrations on this topic from 'Umar, Jābir, Buraidah, Abū Rāfi' and Ibn Fākih.
Abū 'Eisā said: The Hadīth of Ibn 'Abbās is the best thing on this topic and the most correct.
Rishdīn bin Sa'd, and others, reported this Hadīth from Aḍ-Ḍaḥḥāk bin Shurāḥbil, from Zaid bin Aslam, from his father, from 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb: "That the Prophet ﷺ performed Wudū' one time (for each limb)."
He said: This is nothing, what is Ṣaḥīḥ is what is reported from Ibn 'Ajlān, Hishām bin Sa'd, Sufyān Ath-Thawrī, and 'Abdul-'Azīz bin Muḥammad, from Zaid bin Aslam, from 'Aṭā' bin Yaṣār, from Ibn 'Abbās, from the Prophet ﷺ.

Commentary
This Hadīth shows the proof that the obligation of ablution will be performed by washing the parts of ablution perfectly just once, because the real purpose is to wash the limbs thoroughly. Likewise, as coming in the following chapters,
washing the body parts for ablution two times or three times is also correct; and washing some two times and some three times is correct too, but washing three times was his usual routine. Therefore washing each part three times is better and more virtuous.
