Ruling on the wudu of one who exceeds three in gargling and sniffing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If the need requires me to sniff water during wudu more than three times, or to gargle more than three times, is the wudu valid?

Answer:
The wudu is valid, but you have made a mistake, and it is obligatory for you to repent from that. It was reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said—when the three times were mentioned—:
Whoever exceeds that has done wrong, transgressed, and wronged himself.من زاد عليها؛ فقد أساء وتعدى وظلم
.
So the sunnah is three, three washes with no more, and sniffing is likewise three; you sniff and blow your nose three times, and do not add more. Yes.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
