561 [^3] Ibid The Prophet (p.b.u.h.) said: "The worst of you is the one who is unmarried."[^1] The Prophet (p.b.u.h.) said: "After Islam no favour and blessing is better than having a Muslim wife and spouse, because when he looks at her he will be happy and when he enjoins her she obeys and when he is absent she protects his property and reputation."[^2] The Prophet (p.b.u.h.) in a tradition said: "Marry virgin girls because their mouth is sweet and charming and their uterus is more proper and they learn soon and their kindness is more stable."[^3] [^1] Majam'ul-Bayan, under the verse [^2] Man la Yahduruh ul-Faqih, Vol.

And those of your slaves who seek a writing (of emancipation), write it for them if you know any good in them, and give them of the wealth of Allah which He has bestowed upon you; and do not compel your slave girls to prostitution when they desire chastity, in order that you may make a gain in the life of the world; and whoever compels them, then (unto them), verily after their compulsion, Allah will be Forgiving, Merciful." Commentary: Not having spouse will not give someone permission to commit sin,so one must be patient and chaste.

In order to save public chastity and purity, both the youth must try to save themselves and government must get down at it and the rich must embark on it."...

and give them of the wealth of Allah..." Of course, authorities of the society and the rich must be first recommended to do something, and then unmarried individuals must be advised to be chaste and pure.But since in spite of all attempts and endeavours carried out by individuals and others, marriage does not take place and one has to, willingly or unwillingly, remain single for a length of time, so this person must not think that he is permitted to be sexually defiled.
