Sa'id b. al-'As asked Abu Musa al-Ash'ari and Hudhaifah b. al-Yaman: How would the Messenger of Allah ﷺ utter the takbir (Allah is most great) in the prayer of the day of sacrifice and of the breaking of the fast. Abu Musa said: He uttered takbir four times as he did at funerals. Hudhaifah said: He is correct. Then Abu Musa said: I used to utter the takbir in a similar way when I was the governor of Basrah. Abu 'Aishah said: I was present there when Sa'id b. al-'As asked.  

أبو داود:١١٥٣ – حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ وَابْنُ أَبِي زِيَادٍ الْمَعْنَى قَرِيبٌ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ حُبَابٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ ثَوْبَانَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو عَائِشَةَ جَلِيسٌ لأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

أَنَّ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْعَاصِ سَأَلَ أَبَا مُوسَى الأَشْعَرِيَّ وَحُذَيْفَةَ بْنَ الْيَمَانِ كَيْفَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُكَبِّرُ فِي الأَضْحَى وَالْفِطْرِ فَقَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى كَانَ يُكَبِّرُ أَرْبَعًا تَكْبِيرَهُ عَلَى الْجَنَائِزِ فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ صَدَقَ فَقَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى كَذَلِكَ كُنْتُ أُكَبِّرُ فِي الْبَصْرَةِ حَيْثُ كُنْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ وَقَالَ أَبُو عَائِشَةَ وَأَنَا حَاضِرٌ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْعَاصِ

[Machine] Narrated Abu Aisha: Abu Aisha told me that he would often sit with Abu Huraira. Sa'id bin Al-'As invited Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari and Hudhaifa bin Al-Yaman, and he asked them, "How did the Prophet ﷺ perform the takbeer during the festivals of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha?" Abu Musa replied, "He would say the takbeer four times, once on the funeral prayer." Hudhaifa confirmed this and Abu Aisha added, "I have not forgotten what he said about saying the takbeer on the funeral prayer." It should be noted that Sa'id bin Al-'As was also present during this conversation.
