Suicide is one of the great sins in Islam. Allah says explicitly in the Quran,

"And do not kill yourselves. Surely, Allah is Most Merciful to you." (Surah An-Nisa Verse 29)

That's why Allah says in a Hadith Qudsi, speaking of the one who commits suicide: “My servant has precipitated My will with regard to himself! Therefore, I am forbidding him entry into heaven.”

In a hadith, the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) described the people who commit suicide as being in Hell, forced to commit their method of suicide again and again.

Please reconsider. It is not worth it. Allah does not give us hardships we can't handle. Be strong.

As Salamu Alaikoum Sister

Im very sorry to see and read how clearly upset an distraught you are. Dear sister i agree with the comment before mine

It is haram to kill yourself sister! Allah will never inflict on you a burden which you cannot handle ( paraphrasing, not sure of the authentic hadith/quranic statement) Allah says walk to me and i will walk to you (again, paraphrasing)

My dear sister in Islam why would you want to end your life! You have your whole life ahea of you. Allah is giving you the blessing of life you still have a chance to be forgiven and you are considering taking that away? Please sister you can deal with this

I am a 17 year old female living in england If you need company or just some muslim sister advice wallah i would be happy to talk to you Feel free to message me back!

Sallam aalaikoum sissy!

Remember: Whatever method you use to kill yourself, you will be punished by the same method in hereafter. Here is the Hadith (S.A.W)

"He who commits suicide by throttling shall keep on throttling himself in the Hell Fire (forever) and he who commits suicide by stabbing himself shall keep on stabbing himself in the Hell-Fire." (Bukhari, Janaiz 84)

This hadith tells us that a Muslim must not attempt to commit such a sin under the influence of a worldly event by being unable to bear it. The greatest and the worst worldly event cannot be regarded as great in comparison to a hereafter problem. After all, this world is temporary, it will pass by.

The events that force a person to commit suicide because they are thought to be unbearable may turn out to be not so worthy of sadness after a while; then it will be forgotten in time and new questions will occur.

The wisdom why patience is necessary as soon as the misfortune occurs is justified here.

Believers are not depressed by temporary things; they do not regard them as never ending sorrow and grief. They show patience by saying this will also pass and try to get the reward of the patience. Thus, they transform the misfortune into compassion.

The janazah prayer of a person who committed suicide is performed. There occurs nothing as to go out of belief but something like being unable to bear the pressure of the events due to the weakness of belief. Therefore the janazah prayer of a person who committed suicide is performed. That person can deserve to go the paradise only after he serves the punishment of committing suicide in the hereafter.

One of the reasons why committing suicide is a great sin is that man is not authorized to kill himself. Human body is a construction made by Allah. He who has built that structure will pull it down. Man cannot own his body and his soul....

Dear Sister. You do not know what I've gone through when I first came to United States. Bullying was the hardest thing in my life that I could not handle. I was patient, thank God, because I knew the ones who are bullying me are going to Hell RIGHT AWAY. I've also seen that my parents are trying everything they can to make me a better person. SUICIDE IS HARAM. IT IS JUST LIKE DESTROYING AN OBJECT THAT ALLAH HAS MADE WITH LOVE.

Assalam o Aleikum.. Very sad to see a sister in such condition. But dear sister suicide is not the solution, first of all it's a sin, secondly you are thinking of escaping from this world by committing a suicide to get a better life, but actually tht life wont be better at all if you commit this because suicide is a great sin. This life is a short testing period so pass it with courage, determination and positive attitudE, pray to Allah He'll definitely comfort you. Above all, hopelessness is also a sin in islam so please try to recover by attaching yourself to the core of islam (Allah, Holy Prophet p.b.u.h and Quran )

May Allah comforts you. Ameen

Never let the answer be to commit suicide, that is one of the biggest mistakes to make in life. Min fudluk hold on and be strong, I know you will manage this now in your life if you do that.

So take hold of yourself so you actually do not let this be suicide, because you are a strong person with a strong will to continue this life you have if you just look for it not give up. Even if you meet resistance, then you just have to accept that but do not be fooled because you have to keep on moving... This is inside of you, just do not give up that you have inside you that makes you stronger than you know. You are just only 16 years old, so certainly there are more having it like this around the world. After some time of years as you look back at this and that this was just one of those obstacles in life, so will you understand that it made you stronger because you did not suicide ... Assalaam Alaikum

Assalamu Alaikum Sister,

     Your question make me to understand your knowledge in ISLAM.You cannot make allah the loser,you only the loser.

``Keep in mind,Allah told in quran 1)Allah does not impose upon any soul a duty but to the extent of its ability 2:286 2)O you who believe;Be patient and excel in patience and remain steadfast,and careful of (your duty to) allah,that you may be successful 3:200 3)(not accurate)I am not create human being for entertaiment and your soul,body,wife etc are amana from allah.Amana means you have to return those things in the same condition,which is in the form when you got it from allah.

In world wide the suicide attempt is very low in islam it means we are believe in aahira (the next life).if you decide to suicide you didnt understand the concept of life in the way of islam it means you are the loser here and there. See how many of our precedents make their life when they suffer in life Our beloved prophet said, Dont expect anything more than limit please dont compare your life to others life, Allah told (not accurate) O muhammed the unbelievers life dont cause you wounder,Their speech,life style,health,wealth,and everything. These are test for us whether we walk in the limit or not.And allah make the activites of unbelievers as a beauty to them,it is for make them to do more sin and catch in judgement day. But for believers allah test them again and again to give the grade. MY suggestions are 1)dont expect more 2)dont compare you life to others(bcoz this life is playground and the result in judgement day) 3)satisfy yourself by which is given by allah 4)Try to make your life as example to others 5)Keep in your mind everybody have a problem in their life the thing is who is handle that in better way 6)keep practising islam and read quran in your mother tounge Insha allah you may be the beautifull muslim in the coming days Allah told seeking help by patience and salah.

I prescribe the good medicine for you is SURA AD-DUHA 93RD

With lots of Dua Magdoom
