How to help a soul after suicide

Question:

Salaams,

A friend recently commited suicide. I’m wondering how best to help him. I’ve prayed, and I included him in my recent Qurbani.

My question is: what are the specific things one can do to aid the soul of a person who has died this way?

Thank you

Answer:

Wa alaikum Salaam, 

Sorry for your loss.  We must believe that Allah’s mercy is bigger than the sins of the children of Adam as and more than an ocean is to a speck of dust.  If your love for this person reminds you to pray, recite Quran or do zikr and offer it as a gift of Divine Mercy for them then do so as your heart finds contentment in doing so.
Wa Allahu Alam, 
Kamau Ayubbi
