Does the difficulty of digging a grave due to hard rock indicate the deceased's low standing with Allah?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The difficulty in digging a grave for the deceased is not an indication of their low status with Allah Almighty. It may be due to the nature of the place, such as the presence of rocks, and it has no relation to the state of the deceased, whether happy or miserable. There is nothing in Islamic law that contradicts this.
