Chapter on the Description of Ablution (Wudu)

The Shaykh informed me from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from his father, from Ahmad ibn Idris, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from al-Husayn ibn Saʿid, from al-Qasim ibn ʿUrwah, from Ibn Bukayr, from Zurarah, from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, who said: Imam عليه السلام said: "Ablution (Wuduʾ) is twice for each part. Whoever adds beyond that will not be rewarded for it." Imam عليه السلام then demonstrated for us the ablution of the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى (peace and blessings be upon him and his family): Imam عليه السلام washed his face once, his arms once, and wiped his head with the remaining moisture from his ablution, and wiped his feet.
