[Machine] I heard Anas ibn Malik saying that the Prophet ﷺ was brought a cup of water, and he performed ablution. So I said to Anas, "Was the Prophet ﷺ performing ablution before every prayer?" He said, "Yes." I asked, "What about you all?" He said, "We used to pray the prayers with one ablution." Then I asked him again, and he said, "We did not perform ablution unless we invalidated it."
سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ أُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِقَدَحٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ فَتَوَضَّأَ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لِأَنَسٍ أَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَتَوَضَّأُ عِنْدَ كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ قُلْتُ فَأَنْتُمْ؟ قَالَ كُنَّا نُصَلِّي الصَّلَوَاتِ بِوُضُوءٍ وَاحِدٍ قَالَ ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُهُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ مَا لَمْ نُحْدِثْ
