The answer

A young man who is financially and sexually capable should marry, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, urged young people to marry if they could afford it. In marriage, there is chastity for both spouses, assistance in obedience, and an increase in the Muslim population. It has been reported that there are three whom Allah is obligated to help, among them is the one who marries seeking chastity. A Muslim should strive to attain obedience, revive the Sunnah, and support Islam, and not surrender to laziness. "And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him ease in his affair." (Quran 65:4) Marriage is the Sunnah of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, so whoever turns away from it is not of him.
