The Meaning of Killing the Soul

Question
What is meant by His saying: {And do not kill yourselves} [An-Nisa: 29], is it the killing of oneself, or the killing of others?
Answer
I say, and with Allah's success: And His saying: {And do not kill yourselves} means: by committing the prohibitions of Allah, engaging in His disobediences, and consuming each other's wealth unjustly: {Indeed, Allah has been merciful to you} [An-Nisa: 29] means: in what He has commanded you and what He has forbidden you, and Allah knows best.
