Reusing Grave

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Askmufti.co.za

Q: Can a mahram be buried in the same grave according to Shafis? For example like mother and son, and how can it be done?

A: A grave can be used again after the body has completely disintegrated. If there is a little left then it will be placed one said and then the new deceased will be buried.

Allah Ta’aala knows best.
