Ibn Abbas narrated It on the authority of Maimuna that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was given a towel, but he did not rub (his body) with it, but he did like this with water, i. e. he shook it off. (Using translation from Muslim 317c)
«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أُتِيَ بِمِنْدِيلٍ فَلَمْ يَمَسُّهُ وَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ بِالْمَاءِ هَكَذَا» يَعْنِي يَنْفُضُهُ

It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas that the Prophet ﷺ performed Ghusl and a cloth was brought to him, but he did not touch it, and he started doing like this with the water. [1] [1] This is a demonstration of his wiping off the water on his body with his hands.
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ اغْتَسَلَ فَأُتِيَ بِمِنْدِيلٍ فَلَمْ يَمَسَّهُ وَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ بِالْمَاءِ هَكَذَا
