أعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم

بِسْمِ ٱللَّٰهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

As Salaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh,

It is Haram (Not permissible).

It is a Greater Sin and one can not erase a Greater Sin with another Greater Sin.

You can ask forgiveness from the person and Allah(awj), have remorse, commit to never do it again, try to undo the harm, never be in such situation or environment, have belief that Allah(awj) is Merciful.

If you have a problem, you can extract yourself from that situation or environment and look for a better option or have patience and do the best you can till a way is clear or provided. Life is a Trust of Allah(awj).

والله العالم‎
(and Allah(awj) Knows best)
