1967. It was narrated from Abû Hurairah that the Prophet ﷺ said: “Whoever throws himself down from a mountain and kills himself, he will be in the Fire of Hell, throwing himself down forever and ever. Whoever sips poison and kills himself, he will be in the Fire of Hell with his poison in his hand, sipping it forever and ever. And whoever kills himself with a piece of iron” – then I missed something,
(one of the narrators) Khâlid said – “will have his piece of iron in his hand, stabbing himself in the stomach in the Fire of Hell, forever and ever.” (Sahîh)

Commentary
Man is not the real owner of his body or life. Hence, if he harms himself, so he harms the thing which belongs to Allâh, Most High. Killing one's self is a crime like killing others. Therefore, suicide is forbidden and is an enormity or a major sin.
