The way most Muslims look at that, it is not rushing but protection. I am 20 and got engaged in July 1999, and I hope to get married sometime the end of 2000. That wouldn’t exactly be rushing the engagement period, I suppose, but you would probably think I’m still rather young. True, but the way we look on it is that sexual desire is natural, and in many circumstances if it is not given into lawfully, it will be performed unlawfully, hence marriage legalizes a need and reduces the risk of the young fulfilling themselves unlawfully. In fact, a person getting married in Islam is said to have saved half of his faith. And basically that is the bottom line of marriages being encouraged at a young age.
