A DINĀR YOU SPENT ON YOUR FAMILY
One should only refrain from marriage if he fears that he might not be able to fulfill her rights. Bearing the burden of wife and children is like jihād in Allāh's path.
It occurs in the collection of Muslim that the Prophet (ﷺ) said:
"A dinār you spent in Allāh's path, a dinār you spent to free a slave, a dinār you gave as charity to a poor person, and a dinār you spent on your family- the best of them is the one you spent on your family." *
* Muslim #995 on the authority of Abū Hurayrah (radiyAllāhu'anhu)
