Abu Hurayrah said: I seem to see the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, sucking his finger.
إِصْبَعَهُ — his finger. What is sucked -- his finger -- the object of the verb, with '-hu' (his) attached. The suffix ties the finger to the Prophet of the memory, and the noun's ending marks it as the thing the action lands on.
