Mujahid narrated it from Abu Dharr from the Prophet (peace be upon him) regarding wiping the pebbles once. It was also said from Mujahid from Abu Wa'il from Abu Dharr. It was reported from Uthman ibn Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) that he would level the pebbles with his sandals before entering the prayer.
