Commentary:
Our esteemed researcher has declared this narration weak in terms of its chain of transmission.
Whereas Shaykh al-Albani rahimahullah has graded it as hasan, and the researchers of al-Mawsu‘ah al-Hadithiyyah have graded it as sahih li ghayrihi. They have also stated that regarding this issue, it is narrated in Sahih al-Bukhari from Ibn Abbas radi Allahu anhu that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam once performed ablution (wudu) and washed each limb only once.
For details, see: (al-Mawsu‘ah al-Hadithiyyah, Musnad Ahmad: 1/293, Hadith: 151, 149)
