Making fardh wudhu and performing salaah

Question

In wudhu, if sometimes we wash all the parts one time instead of 3 times, can we offer salah with this wudhu?

Answer

The salaah will be valid, though one will not receive the full reward on account of leaving out the sunnah-e-muakkadah. However, if one continuously leaves out the sunnah of washing thrice, one will be sinful.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
