Religiosity has been hypothesized to play protective roles against suicide. In Tunisia, despite the gravity of the issue after the 2011 Revolution and the rise of suicide rates among adolescents and young adults, a significant lack of data remains. The present work aimed to evaluate the associations between suicide and religiosity in university students. The Suicidal Ideations Questionnaire and The Arabic Religiosity scale were used to determine associations between suicidality and religiosity. We found a strong negative correlations found between suicidal ideations and the three sub-scores of religiosity after controlling for the associations between psychosocial variables and suicidal ideations scores. Our findings emphasize the importance of assessing the role of religiosity to the subject and understanding how suicide is conceptualized and perceived in the subject's religion when dealing with suicidal ideation and behaviors among college students. A better knowledge of religious beliefs and even an integration of Islamic beliefs and practices in the psychotherapeutic process of Muslim youth may be helpful to cope with suicide.
