Reply To: Doing Something L'Ilyui Nishmas A [Purposeful] Suicide

Are all his good deeds null and void?

I would imagine that just like any other rasha, God repays his good deeds while still alive.

What’s if his hardships stemmed from lending people money and then going bankrupt because the borrowers were unable to repay?

If he is so mentally anguished over this to the point where he’s ready to take his life, then perhaps he’s not truly a purposeful suicide (as the OP mentions) and does not, in fact, lose his chelek in Olam HaBah.
