I remember a time when we used to mix mud and tree leaves together to fill the gaps in the grave of the deceased person we are burying.

Question

I remember a time when we used to mix mud and tree leaves together to fill the gaps in the grave of the deceased person we are burying. Now a plastic or sometimes a white sheet is used to cover the boards and thereafter the grave is filled with sand. Kindly comment on this, and is it correct?

Answer

No, it is not correct. It is not permissible. Plastic and cloth may not be used. The old system should be maintained.
