Should khilaal be made once or thrice in wudhu?
Question
During wudhu is it Sunnah to make khilaal of the fingers, beard and toes three times or once? What is the reference for the above from saheeh Hadith?
Answer
Once.
The general Ahaadith do not mention three times. Refer to Tirmizi and Abu Dawood Shareef.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
