Is it permissible for a Muslim woman, if someone intends to violate her honor, to kill herself before that happens?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : There is a woman, O Shaykh, who killed herself before she was raped. I mean, we want to vindicate her?

The Shaykh : It is not permissible, it is not permissible. She killed herself.

The questioner : What is the ruling on this?

The Shaykh : It is not permissible for her to kill herself.

The questioner : She leaves them?!

The Shaykh : May Allah guide you. What do you mean by leaving them? Is it in her hands?!

The questioner : I mean, what is the ruling of the Shari'ah regarding her killing herself?

The Shaykh : I have answered you, O Shaykh. It is not permissible, it is not permissible, it is not permissible.
