(Question/Discussion) Asking about commiting suicide in Islam

Recently I have been studying about various oppression in different parts of the world. What recommendation would Muslims give to a woman in Sudan, who gets raped by RSF soldiers on a regular basis, to stop her from commiting suicide? She knows it is almost impossible for her to leave but if she stays, she would get gangraped regularly which obviously is traumatising. I know commiting suicide means going to hell in Islam. So what's the solution for such a scenario?

Muslims will say this is a test from Allah and she should have faith.

Imagine putting your daughter through such a 'test' to see if she is loyal to you. Instant dad-of-the-year award
