Sarafina or whatever you call urself, get this straight in your damn moslem brain, there’s nothing like resting in peace for sinners, in this case this Bashir thing has committed suicide and the law of GOD says ” thou shall not kill”, whatever he was going thru never gave him the license to terminate his own life, whether someone likes it or not the guy is being roasted in HELL fire together with Muhammad…….. okey???

despite what some one is going through suicide is not an option, condemned anyone taking his own life…there is no pity and its stupid, thats being a coward, life aint easy but we always elevate after passing through such trials so as bad as the truth sounds suicide is a sin and highway to hell and in hell no resting in peace…
