What are the dimensions of the grave: length, width, and depth? Thank you.
The minimum for a grave is a hole that prevents the odor and keeps out predatory animals. It is recommended that it be widened and deepened to the height of a man plus an arm's length, based on the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) statement regarding the martyrs of Uhud: "Dig, widen, and deepen."
