Refusal of Marriage

Question
A girl is refusing the idea of marriage because she is afraid of the responsibilities of a husband and children, and due to a personal issue she has. Is this considered a sin? Or, for example, is it wrong to refuse people who are not of the same educational and financial level?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: Marriage is a confirmed Sunnah for those who do not fear falling into sin. It is important for her to sit with those she trusts in knowledge and religion and to be candid with them about the matter to correct her thinking if it is wrong. And God knows best.
