May I know the supplication for a girl to delay the age of marriage?
If a woman reaches marriageable age and a suitable suitor proposes, she should not prioritize her studies or work over marriage. A righteous husband provides a woman with tranquility, companionship, affection, and mercy. Aversion to marriage is not beloved by Allah and His Messenger, nor is it characteristic of prophets, righteous individuals, or the wise among nations, for the messengers had spouses and offspring. Marriage is commanded by Islamic law and is naturally desirable. It is not appropriate to delay it when its time comes, except for a valid and beneficial reason that outweighs the benefits and advantages of marriage, and when combining both is not possible.
