Staying unmarried due to being unable to fulfill one's wife's duties

Q: I am 31 years old and I want to marry but I am unemployed and unable to fulfil wife's duties? Can I stay unmarried?

A: If you are sure that you will not fall into haraam then you may live unmarried.

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