Abstract

The practice of endogamous marriage is still maintained by a number of communities in Indonesia, a social and cultural tradition, one of which is the Arab community in Palembang. This tradition is often associated with efforts to maintain the purity of lineage (family line), family honor, and the continuity of kinship. This article aims to analyze the meaning of endogamous marriage for women in the Arab community of Palembang. A qualitative approach using phenomenological methods was used to explore women's experiences and subjective meanings of endogamous marriage through interviews, observations, and relevant literature reviews. The results of the study show that endogamous marriage is interpreted as a social mechanism to maintain lineage identity and strengthen family solidarity. This marriage practice places women in a relatively limited position in determining their partners. Nevertheless, women in the Palembang Arab community show a more reflective meaning by negotiating their roles as housewives, educators, and social relations with their partners (husbands). These findings indicate that the practice of endogamy is not only related to cultural traditions but also to the dynamics of gender relations in society.
