Live with the Qadar of Allah

Slit Wrists.
Lay Back.
Blood Flowing.
Room Spinning.
Black Spots.
Red Stains.
Pain.
Numbness.
Unconscious.
Death.
Suicide.

What causes people to take the final step? The step that sends them plummeting to the world of death. Do they not know that once they do this...once they commit to death...they are to go to a place where they are to be judged....and may end up in a worse state than they were in in this dunya? SubhanAllah. Suicide--the un-understandable act that seems to fill the "halls" of this earth.
No matter what psychological stress a Muslim goes through, never should they even contemplate this act. I mean...subhanAllah....why would someone commit this act for relief of this quick-to-finish life in exchange for the punishment of eternal-Hellfire?

the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
"Whoever throws himself down from a mountain and kills himself, he will be in the Fire of Hell throwing himself down for ever and ever. Whoever drinks poison and kills himself will have the poison in his hand, drinking it in the Fire of Hell for ever and ever. Whoever kills himself with a piece of iron [a weapon] will have that piece of iron in his hand, stabbing himself in the stomach with it in the Fire of Hell forever and ever." (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5778).

The thought of that...is enough to send chills down even a disbelievers spine.

As muslims...we have no reason to lose hope. Do we not remember what Allah has told us in His Holy Book? (interpretation of the meaning)

"And whosoever fears Allaah and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a way for him to get out (from every difficulty)." [al-Talaaq 65:2]

"Allaah will grant after hardship, ease." [al-Talaaq 65:7]

After Hardship comes ease. Live with the Qadar of Allah---so you can live in the Jannah Allah has promised us.


wa Alhamdulillah rabb Al Alameen
