Q: Want to ask you that there is a person he or she self harms means he or she makes cuts on his or her body. Everytime he or she says that it's the last time but the next time he or she does the same thing again and again. What does islam says about this? Will Allah Ta'ala forgive? What will be the punishment for it?
A: Our bodies are an amaanat from Allah Ta’ala. We are not allowed to deal in our bodies in the way we deem it appropriate. Rather, we will have to deal with them in the manner Allah Ta’ala has commanded us. Hence, it is not permissible for one to make cuts on his body. One will be sinful for doing this.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
