The Prophet (p.b.u.h) said, "Whoever intentionally swears falsely by a religion other than Islam, then
he is what he has said, (e.g. if he says, 'If such thing is not true then I am a Jew,' he is really a Jew).
And whoever commits suicide with piece of iron will be punished with the same piece of iron in the
Hell Fire." Narrated Jundab the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "A man was inflicted with wounds and he committed
suicide, and so Allah said: My slave has caused death on himself hurriedly, so I forbid Paradise for
him."

When `Abdullah bin Ubai bin Salul died, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) (p.b.u.h) was called upon to offer his funeral
prayer. When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) stood up to offer the prayer, I got up quickly and said, "O Allah's
Apostle! Are you going to pray for Ibn Ubai and he said so and so on such and such occasions?" And
started mentioning all that he had said. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) smiled and said, "O `Umar! Go away from
me." When I talked too much he said, "I have been given the choice and so I have chosen (to offer the
prayer). Had I known that he would be forgiven by asking for Allah's forgiveness for more than
seventy times, surely I would have done so." (`Umar added): Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) offered his funeral
prayer and returned and after a short while the two verses of Surat Bara' were revealed: i.e. "And
never (O Muhammad) pray for any of them who dies . . . (to the end of the verse) rebellion (9.84)" --
(`Umar added), "Later I astonished at my daring before Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) on that day. And Allah and
His Apostle know better."
