But try looking at it from a psychological point of view. Comiting suicide is not a sign of weakness, life no matter who we are is precious to us. To give that away and delve into something unfamiliar, in case of suice- afterlife, is not easy. More often than not, it is irrational, a moment of complete helplessness. Nobody plans a suicide.
Seeing her brother there with Asfandyar was something she didn't expect even in her wildest dreams. Where would she go from there if they treated her the way everybody else treated her. This place was her last resort.
Suicidal thoughts occur when you can't see your tomorrow. As a patient of clinical depression who has had suicidal thoughts multiple times, I can tell that nobody plans a suicide. Planned suicides are never acted upon. Trust me on this. No human is brave enough.
Zubiya might not seem like a character who wouldn't have given up, but she was human after all. Years and years of endurance had made her insecure, she thinks her unworthy of love. And it is not easy to live with such people. In an ideal world Asfand and Zubiya would live happily ever after. But in actual life Zubiya's insecurity would come time and again. It would take a lot of time and patience from Asfandyar for her to start opening up to him.
Saying suicide is weakness is very easy but if you actually try to understand the mental status and not the situation, it isn't as absurd as it seems.
