The Book of Funerals

21/34. Chapter:

Washing the Deceased more than seven times

Sunan an-Nasai

أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ حَفْصَةَ، عَنْ أُمِّ عَطِيَّةَ، نَحْوَهُ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ ‏ "‏ ثَلاَثًا أَوْ خَمْسًا أَوْ سَبْعًا أَوْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكِ إِنْ رَأَيْتُنَّ ذَلِكِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Something similar was narrated from Umm 'Atiyyah except, that he (the narrator) said: "Three times or five, or seven, or more than that, if you think that (is necessary)."
