“When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ died, they differed as to whether his grave should have a niche or a ditch in the ground, until they spoke and raised their voices concerning that. Then ‘Umar said: ‘Do not shout in the presence of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, living or dead,’ or words to that effect. So they sent for both the one who made a niche and the one who dug graves without a niche, and the one who used to make a niche came and dug a grave with a niche for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, then he ﷺ was buried.”  

لَمَّا مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ اخْتَلَفُوا فِي اللَّحْدِ وَالشَّقِّ حَتَّى تَكَلَّمُوا فِي ذَلِكَ وَارْتَفَعَتْ أَصْوَاتُهُمْ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ لاَ تَصْخَبُوا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَيًّا وَلاَ مَيِّتًا أَوْ كَلِمَةً نَحْوَهَا فَأَرْسَلُوا إِلَى الشَّقَّاقِ وَاللاَّحِدِ جَمِيعًا فَجَاءَ اللاَّحِدُ فَلَحَدَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ دُفِنَ ﷺ
