This study examines the Nyadokaken pengantin tradition in the marriage of the Osing tribe in Kemiren Village, Banyuwangi, emphasizing its origins, execution, and legal standing under Islamic law. This research utilizes a qualitative methodology, encompassing participant observation, in-depth interviews, and recording while adopting a normative framework that integrates Pierre Bourdieu’s habitus theory as an analytical instrument. Research suggests that Nyadokaken began as a method for conflict settlement aimed at preserving familial unity. It possesses considerable societal significance, as families that renounce it encounter stigma and less social acknowledgment.

Utilizing a sociocultural approach reconciles normative Islamic law with actual practices, providing insights into the adaptive characteristics of Islamic legal principles in Indonesia,
