And do not throw yourselves in
destruction.” (Quran 2:195)
The Quran makes it clear that human life is
sacred. Life cannot be taken without justification
and the right to life is inherent in the tenants of
Islam. Life itself is a gift from the Creator that
we are obliged to care for. Suicide out of despair
of God’s mercy or worldly problems is strictly
forbidden. Prophet Muhammad, may God praise
him, said: Whoever kills himself with something
in this world will be punished with it on the Day
of Resurrection.
