I am a young man suffering from lust, so it sometimes overpowers me and sometimes I overpower it, and I fear for myself falling into sins that corrupt the heart and the religion

The questioner : I am a young man suffering from lust, so it

The Shaykh : I am a young man?

The questioner : He says: I am a young man suffering from lust, so it sometimes overpowers me and sometimes I overpower it, and I fear for myself falling into sins that corrupt the heart and the religion. I want to marry, but I have no money. My question, O honorableThe Shaykh : There is someone who gives me money for marriage, but my soul refuses to take money from another person, to take money from another person. So which of the two matters is more beloved to Allah: taking the money, or being chaste until Allah enriches me from His bounty? I ask Allah, the Exalted, to love you as you loved Him.

The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good. Allah, Mighty and Majestic, said: Until when? Do you think He will rain gold and silver on them from the sky? No, meaning until Allah facilitates wealth for them by any lawful means, whether by inheritance, or by gift, or by earning, or otherwise, because Allah the Exalted did not specify by what means the wealth will come. So I say to the brother: As long as the money came to you without you seeking it out and without you asking for it, take it and marry with it. And I ask Allah to bless him in his marriage. And if he marries a close relative, let him invite us to the wedding feast, if Allah wills. Yes.
