Nur Afiqah's Reflections

My reflection about this project:

To me this Civillisation Project have really motivate me to work harder for my History subject.In the past, i used to think,doing project is so boring.But now i just realised how fun it is to do project with my good friends and fellow classmate.I and my 2 friends Amalina and Halijah have been doing research for the past 3weeks to find out more about Egyption's History. According to my research,Egyption actually do believe in spirits.They also do have many Gods and many rules.I wonder if one day i could meet with an Egyption people to ask them more about Ancient Egypt.

Nur Amalina Azman's Reflection

The Egyption had a lot of History.A small nation had such many rules,kings,gods and even respected certain animals as thier theme.I am very excited to find out more about their past History.I've heard many stories that they also believes in powers.I wonder if maybe there are some morre people of Egypt that are none to us.I hope that i can meet them and find out more about their religion and culture.This activity have motivated me to actually find more facts about the Egyptions and knowing more about other's religion and culture.

Egypt's Politics

In the Egyptian Constitution, political parties are allowed but Religious political parties are not . In addition, political parties supporting militia formations or having an agenda that is contradictory to the constitution and its principles, or threatening the country's stability such as national unity between Muslim Egyptians and Christian Egyptians.The Muslim Brotherhood currently constitutes Mubarak's most significant political opposition; Mubarak tolerated limited political activity by the Brotherhood for his first two terms, but has moved more aggressively in the past six years to block its influence (arguably leading to its recent rise in public support). Trade unions and professional associations are officially sanctioned.

Religion Polythiesms

What is Egypt's polytheism?

Polytheism is the belief in and worship of many gods. Ancient Egyptians lived in an religious society with a polytheism that was both complex and ritualized.The Egyptians had a highly developed belief system that was based on multiple gods.In other polytheistic cultures such as ancient Egypt, gods take on the form and characteristics of objects found in nature, including trees, sacred herbs, cattle, animals and animal--human hybrids.

The Egyption Religion

1. It was based on polytheism,or the worships of many deities.


2. They had as many 2000 God and Goddesses.

Death after funeral:

• They saw it as transitional stage in the progress to a better life in the next world.


• They belief in the rebirth after death became their driving force behind their funeral practices.


• After a period of 70 days,in which after death of a person,the mummy was placed in a decorated coffins.

The Gods And Godesses

As you have read,Egyptian Gods has almost more than 200 of them.But there are also the main ones.Such as Amun, was one of the most powerful gods in ancient Egypt too.Amun was important in the history of Egypt.When Amun was combined with the sun god Ra he was even more powerful. He was then called Amun-Ra.
Atum,a creator god and Egyptians believed that Atum was the first god to exist on earth. The Egyptians believed Atum rose from the waters of chaos (Nun) and created all the gods.

Ancient Egypt Sports

Many of the sports we do today were played among the ancient Egyptians. We may thank the ancient Egyptians for many of the Olympic games we have today. We know about the sports because of drawings in the caves and walls of that time. Here we have introduced some of the sports in the ancient Egypt.

These sports include eg:

• Hockey,
  
• Handball,

Egyption Culture and Traditions

Egypt is a country with an immense cultural mix , you will find that the customs and mentality tends to be full of warmth towards visitors and foreigners.Egyptians are moderately religious and religious principles are quite noticeable in their daily lives
Although most of the Muslims in Egypt do not drink alcohol they don't object to others drinking, but doing it in reasonable amounts. In Egypt, people don't eat pork, and rarely, when you find a place that offers pork, is there much choice on the menu.
People here fast at the time of Ramadan, it is the time when they all come close to each other and respect each other, it is the time when they go out till late at night and fast by day. During this month, donations, almsgiving and charity would be at its highest rates, it is the time for forgiveness and love. It is a wonderful month.

The Islam Religion in Egypt

• Daily worship rituals like praying are compulsory for all Islam unless they came period.


• Depiction of Allah and prophets is strictly forbidden.


• Mosques are the used for worship by most of the Islam people.
