Advice for the woman who refuses marriage on the pretext of studying

Question:
A committed young woman who wants to complete her educational journey says that more than one man has proposed to her, but she refuses on the grounds that she wants to devote herself to worship and religious knowledge. Is that permissible for her? Please guide us. May Allah reward you.

Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and his Companions. As for what follows, what we advise this girl and other Muslim girls to do is to hasten to marriage if a suitable suitor comes, for she should hasten to marriage because of the great benefits it contains, and because the opportunity may be lost. She should not prioritize study or anything else over marriage, because if marriage is missed, it cannot be compensated for, whereas a woman can study while she is married, or it is sufficient for her to study the minimum amount by which she knows her religion and her worship. This is achieved, praise be to Allah, with the least amount of learning, without causing her to miss marriage. So the result is that if it is possible to combine marriage with continuing education, she should do so. But if marriage conflicts with education, she should prioritize marriage because of the great benefits that are lost by leaving marriage at the first opportunity, or when a suitable opportunity and a suitable husband are available. Yes.
