Alhamdulillaahi Rabbil 'Aalameen wa salaatu wa salaamu 'alaa ashrafil anbiyaa'e wal mursaleen As-salaamu alaikum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh. Recently in our community one of our muslim brother has been alledged to have killed himself by shooting hisself in the neck (Inna lillaahi wa innaa ilayhi raaji'oon). This incident has raised many questions. Is it permissible to pray janazah for one who commits suicide? What is the status of this person, are they still considered muslim? Does this act close the doors of Jannah for such a person? Is it permissible for the muslims to make du'aa for him? This particular brother did not die instantly and was in a semiconscious state. While in this state another muslim was by his side telling him to seek forgiveness from Allaah and to say "Laa ilaaha illallaah". Is it possible that Allaah would forgive this act if the brother was able to seek forgiveness before he died or is this the time when it is too late to ask for forgivness? Please if someone who has knowledge of the ruling on this type of situation can answer this question or direct me to where I can find the answers that would be very helpful and may Allaah reward you with good. Your sister in Islaam Umm Aasiyah Inshirah bint Umar

Taken from http://www.binbaz.org.sa/Display.asp?f=Bz02910.htm معاينة الطباعة مجموع فتاوى ومقالات_الجزء الثالث عشر حكم الصلاة على المنتحر س: من قتل نفسه فهل يصلى عليه ؟ ج: يصلي عليه بعض المسلمين كسائر العصاة ، لأنه لا يزال في حكم الإسلام عند أهل السنة. Taken from the website of Sheik inb Baz, may ALLAH have mercy upon him. Q: Is the one who commits suicide prayed upon? A: Some of the Muslim should pray upon him, just like the rest of the sinner Muslims are prayed upon. Because he does not cease to have the ruling of Islam(ie: he is Muslim) according to Ahlus Sunnah wa Jam'ah.

May Allaah forgive him and not deprive him of Jannah.
