What should one do if he doubts the number of times he performed wudu, whether it was two or three?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, a man doubts his wudu; he is unsure whether he performed it two or three times. What should he do?

The Shaykh : The doubt does not harm him.

The questioner : Because he fears that he added to it, which would fall under the hadith:
has done badly, done to extremes and done wrong فقد أساء وتعدَّى وظلم
Sunan an-Nasa'i 140Hasan (Darussalam)
?

The Shaykh : There is no intention.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : It is easy; it is not a prayer with a limited number of rak'ahs such that if one is missing or extra, he must either make up the missing one or prostrate for the extra one.
