Questioner's avatar What age do you think is ideal for a guy and gal to marry?

Question

Salaam

Answer 1

The ideal age in my opinion is from 20 to 26.

I think you should get married at a young age, so you can build your life together as one rather than bringing 2 different lives together and trying to make them fit together. Also when you have kids, you're young enough to enjoy them and join in with them.  

Answer 2

I can tell by the answers that most Y/A people are young.  When you're in your 20s, you think you're grown up.  But to people who are in their 30s and 40s, we realize that just isn't so!

For the rare few who are emotionally mature by their mid 20s, go for it while you have the energy to raise a family.  The brain stops developing at age 25 too, so I'd say NO SOONER than that.  

But for most people (and I say this from many years of living) you just "think" you're ready by then.  You really aren't until your mid 30s.  Believe me, I know.  Been there... seen it among my peers.  Trust me.

Answer 3

ws. 25 for a guy and 23 or 24 for a gal

Answer 4

18 and above.

Answer 5

Hard to say.  It takes a while for someone to be mature enough for marriage but at the same time you want s*x.

Why are you proud to be Pakistani when you don't even live there?

Answer 6

Every person is different, some are ready to marry by 20, some aren't - they may be ready by 25 or sth. They should be mature, emotional and mentally ready.

I think I'd like to get married by 21, at least that's the minimun age I would like to be married. And for me, I'd like the guy to be no more than 3-4 years older... lol.  

Answer 7

age 23 and up

It makes no sense when some of you say 23 for a girl and 25 for a male.

If a guy is going to look to marry at 25 who is the girl supposed to marry at 23?

then if any one looks to actually marry than it would be when the guy is ready, it is him the one that is supposed to ask.

Answer 8

when they r ready to take resposibility about 20 and above !

Answer 9

Answer 10

Before  the girl bleeds.

The Ayatollah Khomeini :Tahrirolvasyleh.

It is better for a girl to marry in such a time when she would begin menstruation at her husband's house rather than her father's home. Any father marrying his daughter so young will have a permanent place in heaven.

Answer 21

w/salaam

Guy: 25

Gal: 22

i dont think girls or guyz shouls marry at ages 20 and down!

21 and up...no prob  

Answer 22

i think best is 20-25 for girls and 25-30 for men... anytime later they get used to being free, and time before they don't know themselves..

It depends on the person's aspirations, if you're still studying it's difficult. but i guess a year after one has settled in his job is good.

I do believe women should marry before 28 otherwise then there can be complications with pregnancy.

Answer 23

When they are old enough to be financially and emotionally independant.  That age varies from person to person.

Answer 24

35.  Seriously.  It takes that long to really know who you are and what you want.   I've seen less divorce when people wait.  Your tastes and desires change so much in your 20s and 30s.  

Answer 25

20-30

Answer 26

Girl:20-23

Guy:23-24

Answer 27

I think over 18 because that is the age where you become an adult in the eyes of the law (lol in the UK thats what they say), so 18 as long as they decide they ready and are not forced or pushed into mariage by anyone else. :D

Answer 28

girl, 20

guy, 25

girls mature faster than boys.

Answer 29

25 - 27 if they are financially stable though..

I wouldn't recommend marriage until the guy is fully able to support his wife without her working..

Engagement is fine though.. Engagement around 22 - 25

Answer 30

I want to get married after college and I have a stable job. And when my future husband also is finically independent inshallah we can have our own family. I will probably be about 23,23,24  

Answer 31

a guy should be married by 26 and a girl 23  :)
