Does the promise to those who practice abstinence, as mentioned in the verse: "And let those who find not [the means for] marriage abstain until Allah enriches them from His bounty," fall under the general meaning of the verse: "And if Allah should touch you with adversity, there is no remover of it except Him; and if He intends for you good, then there is no repeller of His bounty. He causes it to reach whom He wills of His servants. And He is the Forgiving, the Merciful," such that no one can prevent their marriage if Allah wills it for them?

The first verse mentions a promise to those who abstain from unlawful things: that Allah will enrich them, ease their affairs, and grant them chastity. This promise is encompassed within the second verse, for what Allah has promised is true, and no one can prevent His decree or His giving.
