The answer

The conscious Muslim combines religious devotion with worldly pursuits. Work and earning a livelihood are necessary to aid in matters of this world and the religion, with the essential need to consult trustworthy individuals regarding the most beneficial type of work. There is no harm in delaying marriage for a legitimate reason, as long as it does not lead to temptation or falling into the forbidden.
