Ruling on placing one stone on a woman's grave and two on a man's grave

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: In some countries, one stone is placed for a woman and two for a man. Is there a basis for this practice, even if only to distinguish a woman's grave from a man's?

A: I am not aware of any basis for this practice. The Sunnah is to make them equal in depth and burial, and in the appearance of the grave.
