Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, there are also many observations regarding burial. Perhaps the Honorable Shaykh can clarify for us the Prophetic Sunnah and the Prophetic guidance when burying the deceased.
Answer:
The Prophetic Sunnah is that the deceased is placed in the grave on his right side, facing the qiblah. Then the lahdh is sealed with bricks or whatever serves as a substitute for them, so that the earth does not fall on him. Then the grave is filled with its earth, and it is raised above the ground by the width of a hand, with a rounded top, so that it is known to be a grave and is not trampled. Yes.
