Description

A grave is a location where a dead body is buried or interred after a funeral. Graves are usually located in special areas set aside for the purpose of burial, such as graveyards or cemeteries.

कब्र उस स्थान को कहते हैं जहाँ किसी व्यक्ति अथवा जीव-जंतु को उसके देहांत के बाद दफ़नाया जाता है। कब्रें आम तौर पर एक अलग क्षेत्र में पाई जाती हैं जिसे क़ब्रिस्तान कहा जाता है। कब्र के ऊपर यदि कोई इमारत बनाई जाए तो उसे मक़बरा कहा जाता है। कब्रिस्तान में कब्रों को सामान्यतः एक पत्थर (शिला) से चिन्हित किया जाता है, परन्तु चिन्हीकरण विस्तृत भी हो सकता है।
