What is Right to die?

The right to die is a concept based on the opinion that human beings are entitled to end their life or undergo voluntary euthanasia. Possession of this right is often understood that a person with a terminal illness, incurable pain, or without the will to continue living, should be allowed to end their own life, use assisted suicide, or to decline life-prolonging treatment. The question of who, if anyone, may be empowered to make this decision is often subject of debate.

Religious views on suicide vary from the Hindu and Jain practices of non-violent suicide through fasting to considering it a grave sin, as in Catholicism.
