Why Islam judges suicide as a grave sin
Why Islam judges suicide as a grave sin
Iblis destroyed all of Prophet Ayub’s wealth, property and caused a building to collapse, which killed all of his children inside. Iblis then caused him to have a grave skin disease, which caused him severe pain and made society shun away from him. All he had left was his wife and his faith in Allah
. But even his wife succumbed to the wiles of Iblis and left Ayub alone to suffer. Through all of this, Prophet Ayub did not blame Allah
For all you depressed, sad, and dejected souls out there. Never lose hope in the mercy of your lord and keep the purpose of your life in perspective. Every material thing that you attain in your life, be it education, wealth, fame, relationships etc. will not accompany you to your grave.
The only things that will remain are you deeds (good and bad). Therefore, no worldly loss is ever worth even thinking about suicide. It’s the life after death you should always worry about.
Read up and feel blessed that you’re a Muslim.
Asalamalykum
Good post for the truly sad dejected souls.

Assalamualaikum..
reffering to the above subject..i need help from an ustaz or ustazah who can lead me to a new and blessed path. i need advice and words that would uplift me in my life. i have done sins that is so big. and even i repell i still commit zina knowing its the biggest sin. and now, i feel cheated from the one i really cared and love. i’m feeling so helpless. each time i commit zina, i perform my taubat. but i still dont understand why do i repeat my mistakes. i feel so helpless when i’m around my boyfriend. i still commit zina after we broke off. and now when i told him that i wanna get marry to him he said he didnt want me. he told me he dont have the answer why we commited zina. he said i gave way for him. i blame myself to be so much in love with him. and now, when he left me, i feel so dejected and wish i could kill myself for what i’ve done. i feel ashamed to ask for forgiveness from Allah
Al-Mighty. i feel ashamed of myself and the society. although no one knows that i’ve gone this far..but i feel ashamed to Allah 
because i still seak for Him after dissapointing Him of my actions. although its only oral sex but its all the same in Islam. coming near to zina is a big sin let alone commiting it!!! please help. i feel so helpless now.

Wa-alaykumsalaam,
My quick advice to you is to not despair of Allah
’s mercy. Remember that nothing is hidden from him and he is fully aware of the sins you commit. So there is really nothing to hide.
However, Allah
does love the repenting slave and this should encourage you to repent and resolve not to go back to sin. Keep praying and seek the advice of trusted friends.
My long advice is to read this short essay on repentance.

If Allah
wills, you will benefit from it. I pray that Allah 
makes matters easy for you and counts you amongst his sincere slaves.
