Those who liked the grave to be raised

Ibrahim said that a lahd (niche grave) was made for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed grave was raised so that it could be recognised.

Abdullah bin Abi Bakr said: I saw the grave of Sayyiduna Uthman bin Maz'un (may Allah be pleased with him), which was raised (elevated above the ground).

Ibrahim bin Ata bin Abi Maymunah narrates from his father that Sayyiduna Imran bin Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) left instructions that his grave be made square, and raised (high) so that it would be four fingers, or about that, above the ground.
