Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Performing ablution thoroughly at times when it is hard on oneself, taking many steps to go to the mosques, and waiting for one prayer after another wash away sins."
Imam Abu Ya'la and Imam al-Bazzar recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih. Imam al-Bazzar added these words at its beginning: "Shall I not guide you to that by which Allah Almighty wipes out sins?" In one of its two chains he added a person, Abu al-Ayyas, and he said: He is majhul (unknown). I say: This name is Abu al-Ayyas, with a "ya" and a "sin".
