Is It Prohibited in Islam to Not Get Married?
1. The basic principle that marriage is prescribed applies to all people but it may be more important in the case of some people than others. 2. If you fear that you may commit prohibited things if you do not get married, you are obliged to get married. 3. Marriage is recommended for the one who feels desire but there is no risk of his engaging in prohibited actions. 4.
