Accepted Answer

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

The obligation [Fardh] is to circulate water over the part that is required to be washed in ablution. If this is achieved with one scoop, then what is required is fulfilled and it is considered as washing that part, not wiping it.

Allah knows best.
