No it's not allowed to pray for death on themselves, even though we will all die one day.
The Prophet said =
"None of you should wish for death because of a calamity befalling him; but if he has to wish for death, he should say: 'Allahumma ahini ma kanatil-hayatu khairantli wa tawaffani idha kanatil-wafatu khairanli - O Allah! Keep me alive as long as life is better for me, and let me die if death is better for me.'"
And the wording in Sahih Muslim =
None among you should make a request for death, and do not call for it before it comes, for when any one of you dies, he ceases deeds and the life of a believer is not prolonged but for goodness.
If life is hard you have to wish for death all lies to you and cheats on you uses you n throwing you and your family won’t let you be educated they can’t trust you what’s the use ooooo Allaah kill me as fast as you can .
