To answer your question, according to what we know Prophet Essa prayer and peace be upon him didnt get married during his life. He was taken up by Allah before they put him on the cross. That was at a very young age. That is why Nasarah (those who follow him till today) see that going into the monestary is a plus. HOwever, Quran is clear on this point:
"Then, We sent after them, Our Messengers, and We sent Jesus son of Mary, and gave him the Gospel. And We ordained in the hearts of those who followed him, compassion and mercy. But the Monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them, but (they sought it) only to please Allah therewith, but that they did not observe it with the right observance. " (Quran 57:27)
We are in agreement. Although I accept Jesus as God we agree that he was not married and there is no text to support that he was.
