Aleykum selam bro,
You are completely right. I have been thinking about this what you said for 2 days now and wondered and tried to really understand this and now yeah, I believe I do. I must admit I find it hard to say a person is not justified to say they would like to die in such a situation, but now when you again made me remember it really isn't about pleasure in this life.. And nothing justifies the want to kill oneself. There might be reasons, but no, it is not an real excuse for the reasons you've mentioned above. It is far better to live here in this life, pray for forgiveness and such, get the punishments for our sins here, than to get punished in the Afterlife. Far better.
So I thank you very much for pointing this out. Although I know I always knew this but I still wasn't able to implement that belief in situations like those mentioned!!
JazakAllah kheyr with Jannah, amiin!
