commited suicide before reverting to Islam

im a muslim girl, who fell in love with a inidan boy around a year ago. we knew our realtionship wouldnt go far as we are both of different religions and his family are hindu devotees. he is an orphan who grows up in his uncle's house who married a chinese. everytime i step inside his house, it feels so uncomfortable, as they have this altar like thing which has so many of their gods, pictures and prayers. both of hindu and buddha. although i love him, i've never asked him about converting but once in a while i do tell him about Islam. what we do, why we do it, who is god and stuff like that. then one day, he came to me and told me he wanted to convert to Islam. he told me that it didnt matter if his family members are Hindu devotees, its his choice. he told me he didnt know why he goes to temple. he does it for the sake of it. he told me he didnt like it anyway. he really wanted to convert. he was ready. i then started to do my research. to help him. he has a lot of tattoos on his body and he wanted to remove it but he didnt have the means to do so as it was expensive. i tried to find out if he could still convert despite the tattoos as it will take some time for him to save up. we already made an appointment at the Associate of Muslims converts. around a week before our appointment, he committed suicide. his family was angry with me. they blamed me for it. they kept saying that i caused his death. he was closer to me than he was to them but i cant blame them for blaming me. i kept quiet. deep down inside, i was hurting. i too blame myself for it. i didnt knw why he did it why i really wished i had helped him to convert way earlier. its exactly a year since his death but ive been disturbed since then. i do accept that its fate that he has to go one day and that it was his choice to commit suicide. but for a year, i have been disturbed. i kept seeing things, imagining things, seeing him..his dead body in fact. him hanging himself..i kept eharing voices. asking me to do the same thing. i was scared. someone brought me to see a medium and he said that the guy's family sent 'soemthing' to disturb me mentally so that i will do the same. he said it was like mandram. i dunno if i should believe it. i have 2 questions. firstly, is it possible? could it be that they sent something to disturb or haunt me. my 2nd question, was it really his choice to end his life? he was so eager to convert but suddenly with no reason at all, he committed suicide in his room. could it be the house? they had my pictures, and strands of my hair as my bf like to keep thns that remind me of him. i never got it back. so is it possible then? i really need help and answers.

In Allah's name we live and in His name we hope to die. Whatever happens can happen only with the permission of Allah. It is true that people can resortto any form of black magic etc and your only defence is Allah. Allah promises that if you come walking to me, I will come running to you.
Whatever has happened is over, everyone has their own faith that will happen as per Allah's will. So don't lament over what has happened and leave it in Allah's hands. The most important thinag that you need to do is to turn to Allah and pour out what is in your heart. Ask Him like never before and Insya'Allah with His mercy you will get through this rough patch. There is a reason for everything the only problem is that when you are in it, you cannot see what is above the waters.... May Allah have mercy on all of us... Ameen.

Your attachment to your boyfriend touched me really. I guess sometimes how love could move a person :) I am truly sorry about what happened to your boyfriend, I don't think all of us could feel the same sadness as you are facing now.

I'm worried about the truth of medium, and whether the 'thing', if true, would disturb you. Seek refuge in God Almighty from these practise/beings if we all fear God, the creator of heavens and earth. Unto Him we are created, and unto Him we all return. It could be true that you are 'disturbed', or not, so be near to those who are close in love,prayers and faith to God :)

The cause of the death of your boyfriend is, if I may, be a question worth pondering. However, do not pursue the problem too further, if you feel the problem may threathened you verbally and physically, be vigilant jannah14. The fact that you both have cherished beautiful memories together is better than agonizing over his myterious death. You never truly know why he did commited suicide, so have faith that he did not do it because of you, if both of you are trustfull and belief in each other :)

Be strong jannah14, though it pains alot, would he wanted you to live in pain/suffering if he is alive? Take some time to get yourself togetherbefore you moved on jannah14 :)

Thanks a lot Mehboob and Fariz. It really helps. i do pray and all. its the only way i can fight my own 'evil' thoughts and thougts of suicide. i guess sometimes i forgot whom i should fear. God or the devil. Thanks again. Im moving on..in fact i met someone, a muslim, who is older, much more knowledgeable and religious. i really thought he could help me change, and teach me what i should know. he is the ideal husband that i ever wanted. but after a while, in fact, after our engagement quite recently, he changed. he couldn't accept my past. he kept blaming me for what had happened in the past and he always make me feel very lowly of myself. i dunno what changed him but it seems like im the one who has to keep reminding him to practice what he preaches. sometimes he is the one who loses and forgets himself. i have to remind him that he is a Muslim, but he cant accept that im preaching him coz of his ego. engagement is off now. i dunno if i will ever find someone who can accept me and guide me to the right path. yeah, all i can do now is just to keep praying. it was really a test of my faith in Him and a test of my patience maybe.
