Question
A person who got up before dawn, washed his hands and recited the blessing on washing hands, and then went back to sleep, does he need to recite the blessing again when he wakes up in the morning?
Answer
He does not recite the blessing again, because there is a concern for the opinion of the Rashba that the blessing is for becoming a new creation, and we only become a new creation once a day.
