00:00:00 --> 00:00:04
			So let's take the first question.
Assalamu alaikum I am fires
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:04
			Hussein
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:11
			from Dhaka, Bangladesh. I am a
school student. If a Muslim commit
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:16
			suicide, will he be a dweller of
hellfire forever? Will his
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:20
			punishment never end? Even if he
was a righteous person in this
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:24
			worldly life and perform a bother
to Allah? Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:26
			says in the Glorious Quran in
surah Nisa, chapter number four
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:34
			was number 29, wala taco, Tulu and
forsaken and kill not yourself. So
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:39
			suicide is clearly prohibited in
the Glorious Quran, and suicide.
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:43
			It is a major sin. According to
Imam of the Hubby, he writes, in
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:47
			his book, I'll cover the 70 major
sins, wherein he lists the major
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:53
			sins. And he says that suicide is
on number 29 in his list of major
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:57
			sins, suicide, it is clearly
prohibited in Islam.
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:02
			And the punishment for the person
who commit suicide it is mentioned
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:05
			in the hadith of Abdullah Prophet
Muhammad peace be upon him, when
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:12
			he said that if a person kills
himself with a piece of iron, then
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:17
			on the day of judgment in
hellfire, he will kill himself
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:20
			again and again in the same manner
with the piece of iron.
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:26
			If a person drinks poison, and
kills himself, then in the
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:29
			hereafter in hellfire, he will
keep drinking this poison, and
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:33
			we'll do it again and again. So
the punishment for the person who
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:38
			commits suicide is that he will
kill himself the same way in
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:39
			hellfire
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			and suicide, it is never the
solution.
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:47
			This life it is a test for the
hereafter. Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:50
			says in the Glorious Quran surah
Mulk. Chapter 67 was number two
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:55
			allele holofoil motor will hire
Leah blue Akuma ucommerce anomala
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:59
			it is Allah who has created death
and life to test which of your
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:03
			good deeds, this life it is a test
for the hereafter.
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:09
			So even if a person has trials and
tribulations yes to bear it with
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:14
			patience and perseverance, and if
a person commits suicide, he is
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:19
			being ungrateful to the decree of
Allah subhanaw taala. And one of
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:21
			the pillars of Eman as we know.
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:26
			It is believing in kodra. That is
destiny, whether it be good or
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:26
			bad.
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:30
			So even if there are trials, even
if they're tribulations, a person
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:34
			has to bear it with patients and a
believers situation. It is always
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:38
			a win win situation. If God
befalls him, he is grateful and
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:42
			thankful to Allah subhanaw taala.
And if there's any test or any
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:47
			tribulation, he bears it with
patience, and you will be rewarded
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:52
			for it. So for a believer, it's a
win win situation. And suicide is
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:53
			never the solution.
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:58
			And as you ask no question that
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:03
			the person has committed suicide,
and if he performs a bother and if
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:07
			he's a righteous person, will he
go to paradise? A true and a
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:12
			practicing believer, a true and a
practicing Muslim, he will never
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:12
			commit suicide
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:19
			because he will never give up on
the life on the trials and
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:23
			tribulations in this world. He
will be patient and
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:28
			he will be content with whatever
Allah subhanaw taala has decreed
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:31
			upon him and Allah subhanaw taala
says in the Glorious Quran and
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:33
			Sunnah such acronym for Western
for the for Inessa chapter number
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:38
			four Psalm 116 in Allah Allah
yellowfin not unusual Robbie, way
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:43
			up through Madonna delicacy
mugisha that Allah subhanaw taala.
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:47
			He will not forgive the sin of
Sheikh but he may forgive any
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:49
			other sin if he pleases.
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:56
			So if Allah subhanaw taala pleases
He may forgive your sins even if
		
00:03:56 --> 00:03:59
			it be suicide, and he made
directly admitted into the gardens
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:03
			of Paradise. If Allah wishes he
may punish you in Hellfire for
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:06
			some time and later on, admit you
into the gardens of Paradise. It
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:07
			is Allah's prerogative.
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:13
			And our beloved Prophet Muhammad
peace be upon him said that anyone
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:17
			who says La ilaha illallah anyone
who believes in the shahada that
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:20
			is La ilaha illallah, Muhammad
Rasool Allah, there is no God but
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:23
			Allah and Prophet Muhammad peace
be upon him as a messenger, he
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:26
			will enter paradise and upload
Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:29
			said In another Hadith, that
anyone who has an atom's weight of
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:34
			iman in his heart, he will enter
paradise. So eventually the
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:38
			believers even if they have an
atom's weight of iman in their
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:41
			heart, eventually they will enter
Paradise,
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:48
			so shall never despair, of the
Mercy of Allah subhanaw taala even
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:50
			if we are tested, even if we are
trial,
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:56
			even if there are tribulations in
this life, our main focus our main
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:59
			goal should be attaining the
pleasure of Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:00
			should be attained
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:04
			meaning Janna and if this is our
main goal, even if we have trials
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:08
			and tribulations in this life, we
know that it is temporary, but the
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:13
			home of the Hereafter, it is
eternal and it is everlasting and
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:16
			the believers they will abide in
paradise forever.
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:19
			So the life
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:24
			of the hereafter, it is eternal
and it is everlasting.
