Response:
wa `alaykum salam,
Take any job which you can, even cleaning toilets, and marry whom you can, without being choosy.
As Mawlana Shaykh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani said, “When you show Allah swt you are not proud, and that you are trying to do what is right (by working), He will send more and more, better and better.” Once you are earning something, then ask your parents to help you marry, and ask their permission to stay with your wife in their home, until things open further. As Allah swt said:
{Marry those among you who are single, or the virtuous ones among yourselves, male or female: if they are in poverty, Allah will give them means out of His grace: for Allah encompasseth all, and he knoweth all things.} (An-Nur, 24:32)
