is praying for death considered suicidal, and therefore haram?
i cud never commit suicide. but sometimes i find myself thinking…“damn i want to die right now.” and it’s not when i’m upset, it’s when i’m doing something random, like crossing the street, or getting off the train or something. I don’t know.
if someoen cud acutally reply relevantly to my thread, and not ignore it like they usually are in religion, that’d be great 
committing succide is haram. Those who commit succide enter in lower place in jahannum.
Praying for any kind is not haram provided it is an HALAL wish. you can pray from GOD to give you love to live and give you courage to face problems. Who is there who does not have problems in this world.Pray for your parents, try to make the home atmosphere loving, you must contribute the most, do not expect from others much.
for example you can pray for a man you like, for his problems to be solved, or you can pray for the bakhsheesh of your grand grand parents or any one who is dead. It is upto GOD, if he does MUSTEJAB your DOUWAS; not upto any MATOO, to say do not pray for your dead relative or any one else.
Are these MATOOS GOD or GOD has come specially to them to tell all this which he forgets to come and tell us. We are also moutaqei and Perheizgar what I know about myself.
You pray for what ever, for who so ever, whole night or any time of night,; Remember prayer should be not to harm some one, then it is Bad douwa, we do not do Baad douwa for anyone we pray, we are muslims. Tell me your real problem i would pray for you. Every thing would be ok for you; rest assure. i know God answers my prayers for others immediately. Send me a private e-mail. sokoon
accha, but if I pray for an early death, i know my parents will be upset, so is it wrong for me to pray for iT?
I never think about death .
Because if I do think about death...I feel scared.
Because, I don't want to die.
I'm afriad of dying.
I don't think I will be able to die well.
If I see a doctor, I don't want to know that I'm dying.
Even though we all know we will die someday.
I just don't want to know.
When I die, I want to fall asleep and be dead when I wake up.
Death scares me so. I think about death sometimes and I think I don't wanna do it. I think I can't do it.
But I think its something I have to do.
And I'm still afraid.
Then I think about my little boy. How gracefully he died. One minute he was hugging me. One minute he was telling me that he was going to heaven because God told him. The next moment he was gone forever.
I don't think I could be that graceful ever.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Let not any one of you wish for death because of some harm that has befallen him. ** If he must wish for something then let him say, ‘O Allaah, keep me alive so long as life is good for me, and let me die when death is good for me.’” ** (Narrated by al-Bukhaari (al-Fath), 11/154) link
Sara516,
Do you have any aim in your life? if not try to think and feel about something which you can do; and have an aim of life, you would love to live.
Dear Avgamerican girl,
I am so sad to hear about your son. you know i have heard with old family members if some child dies and on the day of judgement he goes to jannat and God asks him through ferishta whom do you want or what do you want ? the child calls his mom immediately. So such mothers go to jannat through this wassella.
i am too scared of death. Although i offer prayer from the age of 5, I do not remember if I am ever any kind of sinner. I speak the truth. God really loves me. He answers all my prayers except he did not let my parents-----------I read too many religious books I was member to ammend ahadeez in a group of sheiks, in their language to find the correct one after research. etc etcI have done a few umraas and a wonderful Hajj; there were some moujejaz during that hajj. for example I did not spend a cent, except tickets. but still I do not want to die too so soon, i want to do some great work for muslims unity.My aim , my hobby, my love to do something very grand with eman darei.

Dear Sokoon,
Thank you for your words. May God bless you for your sweetness throughout your life.
May your sweetness be a virus that infects every person you meet and the grace you give be returned to you tenfold.
sokoon baat hay ke i am not afraid of death, the physical process of it. I'm afraid of what will happen after death, even though i've done wrong things and repented for my worst sins. i try to think of something to do wiht my life, an aim , but i can't picture a future for myself AT ALL. It's not real, it's just a drawing, you know?
M thanks so much for that verse. but i feel there's nothing that's happend to me that i can't deal with. i realize life is a series of ups and downs, and you must learn to cope with them. like i stated in my first post, i don't think of these things when i'm miserable. only when i'm doing a mundane, amoral (NOT immoral) everyday type of act.

Dear Sara5I6,
Loving-kindness must be in your nature. Nature has been said to move mountains. If you can move a mountain, you can do anything.
Kindness is a virtue to be valued. A desireable trait in a person. A trait that not everybody has but some do. Most certainly you do.
Perhaps you don't see a drawing in your life, but neverless the drawing is there.
