The answer

Writing supplications with saffron or other substances and sprinkling them on the deceased's shroud has no legal basis (in Islamic law) and is considered an innovation (bid'ah). One should limit themselves to religiously sanctioned acts, such as supplicating for the deceased and giving charity on their behalf.
