Daraqutni

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked for water for ablution, and he performed ablution once with it, and then he said: “This is the manner of ablution without which Allah does not accept the prayer.” Then he asked for water and performed ablution twice with it, then he said: “This is the manner of ablution for the one who will receive double the reward for performing ablution.” Then he paused for a while, then he asked for water, then performed ablution three times with it, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “This is my manner of ablution and the manner of ablution of the Prophets before me.”
