How to bury a deceased person in mountainous terrain
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: If the land is mountainous, should the deceased be buried in caves or grottos?
A: If it is feasible to dig a grave for him and surround it with stones, that is preferable to a grotto. If that is not feasible, he should be placed in the grotto and covered up so that he is protected from wild animals and the like, in accordance with the saying of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) : [Surat al-Taghabun: 16].

فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ
