interesting topic...

now first of all we may see what sucide is.....

Suicide (from Latin sui caedere, to kill oneself) is the willful act of killing oneself. Suicide can also refer to an individual who has killed him or herself.


Islam and suicide:

hazrat Jandab Bin Abdullah(rz) se riwayat hai. kay rasool s.a.w ne farmaya...

" tum se pehle logoon may ail shakhs thaa.ussay zakham lahaq hua tu woh ghabra gaya...uss ne (tang aa kar) khudkushi kar li, allah tallah ne irshaad farmaya, meray banday ne apni jaan kay khatmay kay liyay mujh say agay nikalnay ki koshish ki, lihaza may ne uss par jannat haram kar di..." (BUkhari)


in quran allah says, " aur apnay aapp ko qatal na karo, yaqeen mano kay allah tumharay upar nihayat meharban hai" (al-nissa 29)

(english) Do not kill yourselves, for Allah is compassionate towards you. Whoever does so, in transgression and wrongfully, We shall roast in a fire, and that is an easy matter for Allah. (an-Nisaa 4:29-30)

Out of all the bounties Allah has bestowed upon human beings, the most precious is the gift of life. Each one us should remember that this life Allah has granted us, it is not our personal possession or our personal property. In-fact it is a trust from Allah, making us merely trustees. Because we are trustees we should utilise each and every moment of our lives in the paths that please Allah.

God is our creator, he is the giver of life, and he alone has the right to end it. our each and every breath,our body parts is Amanat to allah...so who are we to discontinue our breaths?.who gave us right to kill ourselves our others?

In one verse of the Quraan, Allah says,
" How can you disbelieve? Seeing that you were dead and He gave you life. Then He will give you death, then again will bring you to life (on the Day of Resurrection) and then unto Him you will return." (Surah Al-Baqarah Verse 28)
Suicide is stricktly forbidden in Islam....

our holy prophet s.a.w once didnot attended the nimaz-e-janaza of a suicider...

In one incident narrated by Thabit bin Ad-Dahhak (RA): the Prophet (SAW) said, "Whoever intentionally swears falsely by a religion other than Islam, then he is what he has said, (e.g. if he says, 'If such thing is not true then I am a Jew,' he is really a Jew if he is a liar). And whoever commits suicide with a piece of iron, he will be punished with the same piece of iron in the Hell-fire." (sahi bukhari)


Narrated by Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, "He who commits suicide by throttling shall keep on throttling himself in the Hell Fire (forever) and he who commits suicide by stabbing himself shall keep on stabbing himself in the Hell-Fire." (Sahih Bukhari 2.446, 2.445)


now the concept of SUICIDE BOMBERS

i think that there is no such concept as SB....in islam.... islam never allows to kill ur muslim brothers....what these bombers r doing...they are just killing their own innocent and guiltiless muslim brothers.... who hav done no harm to them....as it is said

hazrat abdullah bin omer r.z say riwayat hai kay
rasool s.a.w bayan kartay hain, jo shakhs iss baat ki gwahi daita ho kay allah kay siwa koi mabood nahi hai aur mohammad s.a.w allah kay rasool hain, tu teen(3) surtoon kay ilawa uss ka khoon bahana jaiz nahi
1- jan kay badle jan
2-shadi shuda zani
3-deen islam ko chorne wala( yani musalmano ki jamat say alag hone wala)


similarly it is said in quran

jo shakhs kisi ko (nahaq) qatal kare ga (yani) bagher uss kay k jaan ka badla liya gai, tu goya uss nay tamam logon ko katal kiya.

Harming innocent bystanders, even in times of war, was forbidden by the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). This includes women, children, noncombatant bystanders, and even trees and crops. Nothing is to be harmed unless the person or thing is actively engaged in an assault against Muslims.


ur question was are these people suffering from any psychological disease etc?

i personally think that SB r not suffering from any psyclogcal disease...it is rather the diseases of the society which forces them to do so....like financial problems, any disablity, conflicts in family or b/w parents, loss of some beloved, any other disease, and unemployment also...

these people are further exploited by some network of agencies, who do their brain wash and make them obey thier orders.... i think that they negatively project the concept of jehad....jehad is not killing of innocent people at public places, buses , mosques ,trains or markets...it is a war against the non-muslims...

i can't grasp their rationalization of killing comman man..

the verses quoted above show, suicide in any form is condemned by God, no excuse given under any circumstances. The Quran does not promise Heaven (Paradise) to those who commit suicide but rather warn of condemnation to Hell.

Suicide is a state of disbelief and loss of faith that is condemned by God throughout the Quran. In the Quran, God commands the believers never to despair or lose hope and instead work for a brighter future.

[12:87] "....................... None despairs of GOD's grace except the disbelieving people."

so i think suicide in any form is condemmed in islam... and so SB have no room in islam...

ragards,
