Asalam Alykum WrWb,

MashaAllah, very nice intentions and you seem to be hardworking. May Allah SWT give you more strength to strive for the deen.

I am in no position to give you advice but in the effort of advicing you, i myself will get corrected.

Brother, before making the decision you are supposed to do 2 things,

1. Make enough mashwara (consultations) with elder, pious, experienced and who ever you find that is able to give you some hands on experience.
2. Isthikhara

What advice I could give you is: General advice

1. Dont distribute life by time, you will slip that way, work by your 'tasks' and their priority and not by time.

2. Prioritize your life according to deen, so marriage comes first, islamic studies come first. There is no use of higher salary or higher education if you are missing out on deen. At the end of the day, its those hours and seconds that are counted which you spent on deen, learning it, perfecting it.. and "practising it"

3. Make every single move in your life for the sake of Allah SWT.Have the right intentions in whatever you do.

4. Know yourself, Its easy to get ethusiastic about lots of things and you would want to do many things at the same time.. Shaykh hussain abdul Sattar Saheb puts it in the right way: Dont drill so many holes in the ground, you wont get any where, just drill ONE hole and youl get to the water. Doing less things but perfectly is better than doing lots of things in a messy way.

5. Always connect with Allah SWT. You will get answers brother. Right intentions with connection with Allah SWT will always open the right doors for you.

All the best for the future.
