Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Allah will not look at a man on the Day of Resurrectionلا ينظر الله يوم القيامة إلى رجل
Sunan al-Bayhaqi 10:1468
Unmarried, is this a hadith?

Answer:
This is not in a hadith, as far as I know. And the one who has not married does not thereby leave the religion of Islam, and there is no such statement from the Lord, Glorified and Exalted is He, regarding His looking at him. Rather, marriage is a recommended practice, or obligatory if a person fears for himself from fitnah (trial, discord or temptation), then it is obligatory. But if he leaves it, that does not necessitate that Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He,
or look at them on the Day of Resurrectionوَلَا يَنظُرُ إِلَيْهِمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ
