The answer

What you have done by arranging marriages is an act of goodness for which reward is hoped, due to the great benefits of marriage. It lowers the gaze, purifies the soul, and protects the private parts from unlawful acts. For this reason, Islam has made a man's intimacy with his wife and his spending on her a charity. This is based on the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "O young men, whoever among you can afford to marry, let him do so, for it is more apt to lower the gaze and protect the private parts," and his saying: "And in the sexual act of one of you there is charity," and his saying: "Indeed, your spending on your family is a charity," in addition to fulfilling the desire to increase the Muslim community and hoping for a righteous child, based on his (peace be upon him) saying: "When a person dies, his deeds cease except for three: a continuous charity, or knowledge from which others benefit, or a righteous child who supplicates for him."
