Does the family of a suicide committer get any compensation?
If someone (not a UAE citizen) commits suicide in Abu Dhabi, can his family get blood money or any financial help from the government?

No, his legal heirs will not receive anything from anyone.
The criminal court always orders blood money in case of negligence or liability in the death of a person.
The defaulter or accused or killer of the deceased person needs to pay the blood money, and in the suicide case, the deceased himself is a defaulter of death therefore, no chance of blood money.
