The Prophet used to wash his private parts three times. Ibn 'Umar said: "We did that and we found it to be healing and a means of purification."  

ابن ماجة:٣٥٦حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ شَرِيكٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ زَيْدٍ الْعَمِّيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الصِّدِّيقِ النَّاجِيِّ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَغْسِلُ مَقْعَدَتَهُ ثَلاَثًا قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ فَعَلْنَاهُ فَوَجَدْنَاهُ دَوَاءً وَطُهُورًا قَالَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو حَاتِمٍ وَإِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْوَاسِطِيُّ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ نَحْوَهُ
