Question:
Is the hadith evidence that one who touches his private part must wash his hands three times?
Answer:
The hadith does not indicate this. The hadith says, "He does not know where his hand spent the night." Some scholars said that the meaning of "he does not know where his hand spent the night" is that it may have touched his private part. This is a possibility, this is a possibility. Touching the private part invalidates the wudu' as is known; this is a separate issue from our current issue. Yes.
