It’s too early to Suicide…………….

0

I'm a teacher. Last Monday when I went to my class, I was surprised, no… 'Shocked' to see one of my students wearing a T-shirt with a sentence "Suicide is a permanent solution to all the temporary problems.”. I advised him not to wear such T-shirts and he promised me not repeat again. This incident made me to think more on the growing suicide tendency in the world. Suicide is often committed out of despair. Over one million people die by suicide every year. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that it is the 13th leading cause of death worldwide.

There are different views on suicide. As a catechism teacher I strongly believe that suicide is a sin. Because Bible teaches “Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own, you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).” 
 
The Holy Qur'an says “And do not kill yourselves, God is merciful with you. And whosoever does that (kills self) with aggression and inequity, we will make them suffer in Hell fire, and this is easy for God to do” (29-30, 4)
 
“Suicide–the only offence against the Laws for which men cannot devise a punishment.” Abraham Miller.
