But rather, I -asws meant with my -asws words, ‘The one who makes a resemblance’, is one who installs a religion other than religion of Allah -azwj and calls the people to it, and with my -asws words, ‘One who owns a dog’, one hateful to us -asws People -asws of the Household. Keeping it is feeding him and quenching him. One who does that, so he has exited from Al-Islam .

A Grave should not be deeper than 1.6 Meters وَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ أَنَّهُ كَرِهَ أَنْ يُعَمَّقَ الْقَبْرُ فَوْقَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَذْرُعٍ وَ أَنْ يُزَادَ عَلَيْهِ تُرَابٌ غَيْرُ مَا خَرَجَ مِنْهُ And from Ali -asws , may the Salawaat of Allah -azwj be upon him -asws , he -asws disliked the grave to be deeper than three cubits [9] , and to increase the soil upon it other than what had come out from it.
[10] وَ السُّنَّةُ أَنَّ الْقَبْرَ تُرْفَعُ أَرْبَعَ أَصَابِعَ مُفَرَّجَةً مِنَ الْأَرْضِ وَ إِنْ كَانَ أَكْثَرَ فَلَا بَأْسَ وَ يَكُونُ مُسَطَّحاً لَا يَكُونُ مُسَنَّماً And the Sunnah is that the grave should be raised to four separated fingers from the ground, and if it were to be more, there is no problem, and it should be flat, and not humped’.
