they believe the body should arrive in afterlife safely and intact
Ancient Egyptians, much like other people in other times and places, have struggled with the problem of death. The essential problem is that nobody wants to die, yet everybody eventually does. If you cannot live forever, perhaps you can make your dead body last forever; it is a kind of immortality. It doesn't really make sense, but people are often not sensible when dealing with the subject of their own death.

The ancient Egyptians used this method whilst preparing ther dead for the afterlife. It was a practiced part of Mummification.
The earliest ancient Egyptians buried their dead in small pits in the desert. The heat and dryness of the sand dehydrated the bodies quickly, creating lifelike and natural 'mummies'.Later, the ancient Egyptians began burying their dead in coffins to protect them from wild animals in the desert. However, they realised that bodies placed in coffins decayed when they were not exposed to the hot, dry sand of the desert.Over many centuries, the ancient Egyptians developed a method of preserving bodies so they would remain lifelike. The process included embalming the bodies and wrapping them in strips of linen. Today we call this process mummification.
Resin was used by the Egyptians as part of the mummification process. The resin was poured into the person's skull after the brain was removed to help it keep its shape. It was also used to secure bandages in place.
NO. Ancient Egyptians used mummification and this had not been the practice in Egypt for centuries before Muslims invaded Egypt in 639 C.E. Mummification uses salt to remove water from the body, the body is wrapped tightly in bandages and resin. Muslims wash the body of a deceased person, wrap it in loose cloth, and bury it in a shallow grave. It is a completely different process.
