The ruling on one who kills himself to kill the Jews
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And this one asks: What is the ruling on one who plants a bomb in himself to kill a group of Jews thereby?
Answer:
The one who sees this— we have informed them more than once that this is not permissible, because he is killing himself, and Allah says:[An-Nisa 4:29] And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever kills himself with something, he will be punished with it on the Day of Resurrection." So he strives to guide them, and if jihad is legislated, he fights alongside the Muslims; if he is killed, that is his reward. As for him killing himself by putting explosives in himself until he is killed with them, this is not permissible; he does not sit, or stab himself with them, he does not sit, but he fights where jihad is legislated alongside the Muslims. As for the action of the Palestinian in this matter, it is not permissible; rather, what is obligatory upon them is calling to Allah, teaching, guiding, and advising, without this action.

And do not kill yourselves [or one another]
وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا أَنفُسَكُمْ
