It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever performs ablution and performs it well, then recites this supplication: "Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah wahdahu la sharika lahu, wa anna Muhammadan abduhu wa rasuluhu" (I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, He is alone, He has no partner, and that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger), then three doors from the doors of Paradise will be opened for him, and he may enter through whichever of them he wishes.

Brief Explanation
Benefits: … It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa‘id al-Khudri radi Allahu anhu that the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: Whoever performs ablution (wudu) and then recites this supplication: Subhanak Allahumma wa bihamdik, ash-hadu an la ilaha illa ant, astaghfiruka wa atubu ilayk. (O Allah! You are pure and with Your praise; I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except You; I seek Your forgiveness and turn to You in repentance.)—then this deed will be written on a paper and sealed, and it will not be broken until the Day of Resurrection. (Amal al-Yawm wa’l-Laylah by al-Nasa’i: 81, al-Mustadrak al-Hakim: 1/564, al-Sahihah: 2333) One should be diligent in reciting all supplications after ablution.
