Question

Allah says he won't push a person past their limits so why do people commit suicide?

Answer

This is because they do not use their reasoning correctly or they do not consult the right people.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
