question

Does Islam recommend a certain age for becoming pregnant?

Concise answer

Pregnancy is a natural event that girls can experience after puberty when they find the ability to become so, and its end (menopause) is also a natural one, meaning that at a certain age women naturally lose the abovementioned ability. Since this matter varies from person to person depending on various physical, social and cultural factors, Islam has no specific orders regarding the age of pregnancy.

For further information on the age of pregnancy, you can refer to this website.
