Question
Entered the bathroom and exited, how many times should one wash their hands and what is the ruling if one has been accustomed to washing three times until now?
Answer
According to the basic law, once is sufficient, but there are those who are stringent and wash three times. Regarding the annulment of vows, one can rely on the declaration made on the eve of Rosh Hashanah.
