The answer is "euthanasia".

Euthanasia refers to the act of intentionally finishing a man's life to assuage enduring. For instance, it could be considered killing if a specialist purposely gave a patient with a terminal sickness an overdose of muscle relaxants to end their life. It is also known as mercy killing.
