Is marriage obligatory for every Muslim?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
'Abd al-Mun'im Salih from Jubayl says: Is it obligatory for me, or for every Muslim, to get married, or is this a matter of choice for the Muslim?

Answer:
The one who fears for himself falling into unlawful sexual intercourse must get married; it is obligatory for him, it is obligatory for him. And the one who has desire but does not fear for himself should get married, because this preserves his chastity, and he also gets righteous offspring, and good comes about through it. Yes.

The presenter:
Yes.
