Abstract

The religious guidance notion played an influential role in ancient Egyptian daily life. In ancient Egypt, kings and people relied heavily on their gods for guidance. Many gods had influential guiding roles throughout ancient Egyptian religion, such as Re, Maat, Anubis, and Thot. They used the religious guidance during their era in various situations. The ancient Egyptians would not have built their magnificent civilizations or achieved such great success in all fields of life if they had not been religiously guided. This guiding concept has values and principles that are highly appreciated and were revealed and perceived differently. Therefore, this research investigates these concerns through an analytical approach, examining pictorial and textual sources such as paintings, archaeological evidence, and texts from ancient Egyptian literature, vocabulary, and religious writings. The paper concludes that the ancient Egyptians regarded the religious concept of guiding as similar to Maat, which has implications for all of ancient Egypt's daily, religious, and social life. This concept of religious perspective was significant in ancient Egypt from predynastic times until the late period. Moreover, there are similarities between this concept of ancient Egyptian and modern-day guiding.
