Thabit Thumali narrates: I asked Imam Abu Ja'far (Imam Muhammad Baqir): Did Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrate this hadith to you? That the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ablution once, once, and twice, twice, and three times, three times? So Imam Abu Ja'far (that is, Imam Baqir) replied: "Yes!" The narrator of this narration, Thumali, is not reliable, and the other narrator of this narration, Ibn Bint Sada, is trustworthy.
