Best Answer

In Dante's Inferno, those who commit suicide are condemned to the seventh circle. They are transformed into thorny trees and bushes, where they are torn apart by Harpies for eternity. This punishment reflects the idea that by taking their own lives, they have rejected the gift of life given by God.
