Fasting for a person who needs to get married

Q: If a girl gets involved in a great sin by rubbing her private part against a pillow and discharges, is she committing zina? She performs salah five times a day and knows about Islam. If such a girl continues this and her parents are not getting her married then what must she do? 

A: She should fast and explain to her parents that she cannot manage.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
