حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ، وَزَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ ، قَالُوا : حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ أَبُو سُلَيْمَانَ النَّخَعِيُّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي زَيْدٌ الْعَمِّيُّ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ فَأَحْسَنَ الْوُضُوءَ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ : أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ ، وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ ، فُتِحَ لَهُ ثَمَانِيَةُ أَبْوَابِ الْجَنَّةِ مِنْ أَيِّهَا شَاءَ دَخَلَ " .
´It was narrated from Anas bin Malik that :` The Prophet said: "Whoever performs ablution and does it well, then says three times: 'Ashhadu an la ilaha illallah wahdahu la sharika lahu, wa ashhadu anna Muhammadan `abduhu wa rasuluhu (I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah alone, with no partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and His Messenger),' eight gates of Paradise will be opened for him; whichever one he wants he may enter." (Da'if) Another chain with similar wording.

This narration is weak in its chain due to Zayd al-‘Ammi, but the ahadith regarding reciting the supplication once are authentic, as mentioned in the following hadith. Furthermore, the aforementioned virtue of reciting it once is also narrated in Sahih Muslim. See: (Sahih Muslim, Book of Purification, Chapter: The Recommended Remembrance After Ablution, Hadith: 234)
