Sahih Muslim 1400d (Book 16, Hadith 4) #10539
The Importance of Marriage

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the importance of marriage and how it should not be delayed.

Abu al-Rahman b. Yazid said: I and my uncle 'Alqama and al-Aswad went to 'Abdullah b. Mas'ud (Allah be pleased with him). He (the narrator further) said: I was at that time young, and he narrated a hadith which it seemed he narrated for me that Allah's Messenger said like one transmitted by Mu'awiya, and further added: I lost no time in marrying.
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ دَخَلْتُ أَنَا وَعَمِّي، عَلْقَمَةُ وَالأَسْوَدُ عَلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ وَأَنَا شَابٌّ، يَوْمَئِذٍ فَذَكَرَ حَدِيثًا رُئِيتُ أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَ بِهِ، مِنْ أَجْلِي قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏.‏ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ أَبِي مُعَاوِيَةَ وَزَادَ قَالَ فَلَمْ أَلْبَثْ حَتَّى تَزَوَّجْتُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith emphasizes the importance of marriage and encourages people to not delay it. It was narrated by Abu al-Rahman b. Yazid who said that he went with his uncle Alqama and al-Aswad to Abdullah b. Mas'ud who was at that time young himself. He then narrated a hadith which was similar to one transmitted by Mu'awiya in which Allah's Messenger said that he did not lose any time in getting married himself. This hadith teaches us the importance of marriage as it is an important part of life and should not be delayed for too long as it can lead to many problems later on in life such as loneliness or depression due to lack of companionship or support from a spouse or family members. It also teaches us the value of taking initiative when it comes to important matters such as marriage so we do not miss out on opportunities due to procrastination or fear of failure or rejection from potential partners/families etc..
