I want to marry but cannot afford it yet. What should I do?

If you are not yet able, Islam tells you to preserve your chastity, fast, and strive to improve your means until Allah opens the way.
Allah says: let those who cannot yet marry keep themselves chaste until Allah enriches them (an-Nur 24:33). The Prophet ﷺ recommended fasting because it is a shield. Practical steps: set a savings target, improve your skills or income, attend the pre-marriage course early, and talk with your family — sometimes the family is willing to help, or a prospective spouse will accept a modest start. Stay away from mixing and content that arouse desire (an-Nur 24:30). Scholars also mention that one who marries to protect his chastity is promised Allah's help.
