I been through it.
It's not out of malice true, but out of despair.
Despair is a great evil and sin too, when there is no reason not to hold on to hope.
I always carry D.I.F.D who committed suicide. I don't say they are going to hell or anything like that, it's just that's a sad tragedy that is out of severe injustice to one's own self.
Rapists and murders often are people who think lowly of themselves, they hate themselves, etc, and hate what they do.

By the way to me, suicide is murder, it's murder of your own life, but murder none the less.
No sorry, MK, having depression myself, and having been suicidal myself, you have no clue what you are talking about. Your religion teaches you that, but that is not what PHD psychologists or psychiatrists call it.
People who kill themselves should not be equated to say robbers or rapists who murder their victims, it isn't even close to being equal. They are merely individuals in stress, which is not the same as the selfish murder of someone else.
