Utisak o prednosti društvene i porodične zajednice nad pojedincem i nosiocima bračne zajednice u direktnoj je vezi s pojmom kulturnog identiteta individue. Kako je pojam kultura definisan kao način implementacije prethodno stečenih znanja, verovanja i nasleđenih običaja, a identitet nas upućuje na istovetnost i jednakost, možemo reći da je identitet muslimanske žene u braku počivao na elementima islamskog zakona: šerijata, te pripadnosti zajednici muslimana: umi, a hrišćanske (pravoslavne) žene na pripadnosti crkvi i upražnjavanju tradicije, verovanja i običaja seoske ili gradske sredine kojoj je pripadala. Društveno-političke okolnosti u Kneževini Srbiji XIX veka donele su promene u bračnim odnosima hrišćana, ali nisu imale nikakvog uticaja na muslimansko stanovništvo. Promene u bračnim zajednicama muslimana bile su uslovljene opštim društvenim promenama kojima se islamska zajednica postepeno prilagođavala. Ovaj rad se bavi analizom i kontrastiranjem primarnih uslova na osnovu kojih je žena stupala u brak u XIX veku: elementima šerijatskog bračnog prava kod muslimanske žene, crkvenih kanuna i državnih zakona kod hrišćanke. Istovremeno, ovaj rad svedoči o (ne)zavidnom položaju žena o čijem su statusu raspravljali mnogi polazeći s različitih stanovišta, služeći se pogrešnim interpretacijama, te time uzeli učešće u kreiranju njihovog identiteta. Rad je nastao primenom interdisciplinarnog načina istraživanja uz korišćenje izvora srpske i osmanske provenijencije, te relevantne literature.
The impression of family priority and social community over individual and married couple is in a relation with the cultural identity of individual. As term culture is defined as form of human knowledge, beliefs and behavior, but identity refers us to commonality and equality, we can say that identity of Muslim women in marriage was based on elements of Sharia Law, so belonging to Muslim community: umma and Christian (Orthodox) women on belonging to a church community and implementation of tradition, beliefs and customs of the community. Social-political atmosphere in the Principality of Serbia in XIX. century brought changes to relations of Christians marriage, but had no influence on Muslim population. This work has a goal to analyze and compare basic conditions on which women step into marriage in XIX. century: elements of Sharia Family Law (Muslim women) and church canons and state laws (Christian women). The paper includes interdisciplinary approach to research, use of primary historical sources of Serbian and Ottoman provenance, so relevant literature.
