What is the ruling on the funeral prayer for the deceased if the cost of his shroud was paid a week after his burial?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The shroud is taken from the deceased's estate and takes precedence over all other rights pertaining to the estate. The deceased is not held accountable if one of the heirs or another person purchases it on credit, to be paid later from the estate, or if someone donates its purchase and its value is not paid immediately.
