Question

Answer

- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -

Suicide is a great sin - there is no doubt about it, but the Islamic Shari'ah commands all Muslims to perform janaza. So such a person also has to perform janaza. However, if the eminent and following scholars of the society refrain from participating in the janaza of such a person in order to explain to the people the abomination of this injustice, then there is also a respite. However, his relatives and the general public must arrange for his funeral prayers. Do not bury without performing the janaza prayer. And in a hadith about the severity of the punishment for suicide, Irshad has said: "Whoever commits suicide, he will continue to suffer the punishment in Hell." For example, a person who commits suicide by taking pesticides will continue to do so in hell and will continue to suffer from the use of such pesticides. In another hadith, Irshad has said: That is, his punishment will be very difficult and prolonged. 1288893658
