This chapter explores the significance, understanding, and meaning of the Ngoni traditional funeral burial practices among Christians of the Roman Catholic Church under the Traditional Authority Mtwalo of Mzimba in the Northern Region of Malawi. The qualitative research methodology was used, which included in-depth and group interviews, as well as observations. This study has revealed that despite being Catholic Christians, when it comes to the burial of the deceased relative, the Ngoni of Mzimba observe, respect and follow their traditional religious rituals. Among the reasons they give is the need to live in harmony between the living and the dead. The Ngoni believe that ancestors dwell both in the graveyard and among the living in the village. To appease ancestors, their descendants are expected to inform them when one of their children has passed away, mourn the kin’s spirit together and offer sacrificial beer to the deceased. The burial rites are believed to help the spirit of the departed kin to be properly welcomed to the ancestral world while at the same time preventing misfortunes among the living. This chapter significantly contributes to our comprehension of African Traditional Religion within the context of Christianity. It elucidates the enduring presence of traditional practices, emphasizing the profound significance of ancestor worship. Furthermore, it highlights the crucial role played by rituals in preserving a delicate equilibrium between the living and the deceased within the Ngoni community of Northern Malawi.
