"Marriage for the youth in the time of fitna (trial) is more obligatory than Hajj." Is this quote correctly attributed to Imam Bukhārī?
We were unable to locate the specific quote in question from Imam Bukhārī. As a general principle, you should put the burden on the one narrating a quote, incident, or hadith to provide, at minimum, a proper reference and, ideally, an assessment of its authenticity.
And Allah knows best.
