dc.description.abstract | This article explores the multifaceted nature of marriage traditions among Muslims in Jammu and Kashmir, examining their evolution from historical roots to contemporary dynamics. It explores the interplay of tradition, modernity, and identity in shaping matrimonial practices within this culturally rich and diverse region. Drawing on historical analysis and contemporary research, the study traces the historical trajectory of marriage customs in Jammu and Kashmir, stressing the fusion of indigenous traditions with Islamic principles following the region's conversion to Islam in the 14th century. It highlights the adaptive nature of marriage traditions, which have evolved in response to socio-cultural dynamics, including urbanization, globalization, and conflict. Through qualitative research methods such as purposive selection, participant observation and thematic analysis, the study engages with recently married individuals from diverse backgrounds to capture nuanced insights into contemporary marriage practices. It examines shifting trends in mate selection, with a growing preference for love marriages driven by increased educational attainment and autonomy among individuals, as well as the influence of globalization on inter-regional and transnational marriages. | en_US |
