Assalaam walaikum,
It is a simple solution. If you wish to marry early do so. What stops the early marriage is simple. Culture. Everyone wants to be well off. You want the college degree. You want the same benefits as the non-Muslims. We have had many discussions on the ridiculous requirements that parents are seeking.
People fear poverty more than they fear faith.
There is no engagement in Islam.
And let us stay away from stereotypes.
