Why have I not married yet, and will I spend my whole life fasting, and can tribulation be in what Allah has created us upon?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
One should supplicate frequently and earnestly to Allah to resolve problems, for marriage is a predestined provision. Fasting abundantly is good and carries immense reward. Allah may test His servants concerning that upon which He created them, for a wisdom He knows. The servant must surrender their affair to Allah and repel destiny with supplication. One must seek a righteous wife who is content with little, for marriage is a means to provision, and Allah facilitates it for whoever desires chastity.
