Whoever among you can afford to get married, let him do so
it was narrated that 'Abdullah ibn Masoud, may Allah be pleased with him, said:
"We went out with the Messenger of Allah and we were young men who could not afford anything. He said: 'O young men, whoever among you can afford to get married, let him do so, for it is more effective in lowering the gaze and protecting one's chastity. Whoever cannot afford it should fast, for it will be as a shield for him."'
The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, gave young people special attention because they are the active energy and the driving force, and the tools in war and peace, they are the men of the present and the future, they are to achieve the hopes and the most important duties. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) used to meet them in many places, as well he used to talk to them like the one who talks to his beloved.
The Almighty said: {The Prophet is more worthy of the believers than themselves, and his wives are [in the position of] their mothers} Quran (33:6)
