What is the ruling on marriage in Islam? Obligatory or recommended?
The basic ruling on marriage is that it is recommended (sunat) for those who desire it and are able, but the ruling can change according to the individual's circumstances.
Allah commands that the unmarried among you be married (an-Nur 24:32), and the Prophet ﷺ called marriage his sunnah and censured whoever disliked it. Scholars divide the ruling on marriage into five: obligatory for one who is able and fears falling into zina; recommended for one who desires it and is able; disliked (makruh) for one who has no desire and cannot bear the cost of maintenance; forbidden (haram) for one who is certain he will wrong his spouse; and permissible for everyone else. This assessment is personal — look at your own circumstances, ability to provide maintenance and readiness to shoulder responsibility. Further explanation is on the Rulings page.

Perbezaan mazhab. Mazhab Hanafi, Maliki dan Hanbali menegaskan nikah wajib bagi yang mampu dan bimbang zina; dalam mazhab Syafi'i asalnya sunat bagi yang berhajat, namun ramai ulama Syafi'i turut mewajibkannya jika zina tidak dapat dielakkan kecuali dengan berkahwin.
