Question:
He says: I am a man suffering from distress in my chest and sorrow, and sometimes I want to commit suicide. I commit sins and transgressions, so I ask for guidance.
Answer:
You must be patient, you must be patient and make du'a' (supplication). As for suicide, it is killing oneself, and the one who kills himself is in the Fire, as indicated by the hadiths. The one who kills himself enters the Fire, as indicated by the authentic hadiths. It indicates despair, so do not despair and do not be angry, but be patient. Make use of du'a' (supplication), increase in the remembrance of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and in reciting the Qur'an, and Allah will cure you, if Allah wills.
