Did it come from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) that he performed wudu' once?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Noble Shaykh, did it come from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) that he performed wudu' once? Is it permissible to break the rows to get closer to the scholars' gathering?

The Shaykh : As for the first question, yes, it is established from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he performed wudu' once, twice, and three times. It is also established from him that he varied the limbs, washing some once, some twice, and some three times. The apparent meaning of the noble verse
So wash your faces and your hands (forearms) up to the elbows. فاغسلوا وجوهكم وأيديكم إلى المرافق
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 145Da'if (Darussalam)
what does it require? It requires washing once, because Allah the Exalted did not mention repetition. Therefore, if a person performs wudu' once, it suffices him by the indication of the Book and the Sunnah.
