Shuba reported,

Whenever Ibn Abbas performed the ritual bath after major impurity, he would pour water with his right hand onto his left and wash it seven times before dipping it into the vessel.One time he forgot how many times he had poured water over his hand, so he asked me, "How many times did I pour?"I replied, "I do not know."He said, "May you be motherless, why do you not know?"Then he performed wudu as he would for prayer, after which he poured water over his head and body. He said, "This is how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to purify himself," meaning, perform the ritual bath.

Hasan

حدثنا يزيد بن هارون أخبرنا ابن أبي ذئب

عن شعبة مولى ابن عباس

أن ابن عباس كان إذا اغتسل من الجنابة أفرغ بيده اليمنى على اليسرى فغسلها سبعا قبل أن يدخلها في الإناء فنسي مرة كم أفرغ على يده فسألني كم أفرغت فقلت لا أدري فقال لا أم لك ولم لا تدري ثم توضأ وضوءه للصلاة ثم يفيض الماء على رأسه وجسده قال هكذا كان رسول الله ﷺ يتطهر يعني يغتسل
