Qutbul Aqtaab,Syedus Saadaat,Sheikhul_Mashaikh, Ghous Samadaani,  Mahboob Subhaani, Sulatanul_Aulia, Abu Muhammad, Al-Syed Sheikh Mohayyuddin Abdul Qadir   Al-Gillani ,  Radhi_Allahu Anhu

said

    Suppose the arousal of your sexual appetite occurs at a point where marriage would be far too expensive for one in your economically poor condition, so you control yourself in patient expectation of relief from the Creator (i.e Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala)). By His power He may remove the urge aroused in you by that very power, and thus relieve you of it. He may also enable you to lead a virtuous life without having to bear the burden of marriage. Or-else He may provide you with the necessary means, as a gift with His blessings, to make it light for you in this world and easy in the hereafter.

   Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala) will call you patient and grateful because of your patience in the matter, content to accept His Providence, and will therefore increase you in virtue and strength. For if it is your destiny to have your needs sufficiently and pleasantly supplied, your patience will turn into gratitude, and the Almighty and Glorious One has promised those who are grateful still further abundance of gifts, in His Firmaan in the Holy Quraanul-karim, 

If you are thankful, I will give you more; but if you are ungrateful, My punishment is terrible indeed. (14:7)

    Should this not be your destined lot, however, you must survive without it by removing the shahwat desires from your heart, whether the self is willing or reluctant. Practice patience and oppose your desire. Hold fast to the commandment of the Law, and accept the decree of Providence, hoping thereby to receive divine grace and favor. As Allah (Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala) has said: 

Those who patiently persevere will truly receive a reward without measure. (39:10)
