I heard people say that if you can't marry you have to fast. is it in the hadith? and what kind of people are required to do that?

(Sahih Bukhari) Volume 7, Book 62, Number 4:
Narrated 'Abdullah:
We were with the Prophet while we were young and had no wealth whatever. So Allah's Apostle said, "O young people! Whoever among you can marry, should marry, because it helps him lower his gaze and guard his modesty (i.e. his private parts from committing illegal sexual intercourse etc.), and whoever is not able to marry, should fast, as fasting diminishes his sexual power."

It is not obligatory. Its just that its better if u do fast to refrain from unlawful sexual stuff
