Death of a small investor
Photo: STAR
We are shocked at the death of an investor of stock market who allegedly killed himself recently after becoming bankrupt in stock business. We have no words to console his wife, lone child and relatives. Borrowing money with interest in order to become wealthy overnight without toil is discouraged in Islam. My view is, in the name of share business what is going on is sheer gambling. Our stock market is in no way like that of other countries. We need to take precautions before making further investment after the so-called correction of the market by the authorities. My fervent request to all small investors who lost their money is to have patience at this juncture. Our life is so precious. We are not born on our will and certainly we should not take our lives on our own accord. Liakot left his family in utter miseries. Nevertheless, we pray for the salvation of his departed soul. May Allah forgive him.
