The Companions' statement: (His deeds are nullified) Did they believe that killing oneself nullifies one's deeds?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The Companions' statement:
His deeds are nullified حبط عمله
Does this imply that the Companions believed that killing oneself nullifies one's deeds?

The Shaykh : I do not think they meant the absolute nullification of deeds, which is a consequence of shirk (associating partners with Allah), but rather the nullification of his deeds in his jihad.
