The answer

Fulfilling the duty of caring for the rights of deceased Muslims and honoring them by burying them is among the best deeds by which a servant draws closer to his Lord, and it falls under cooperating in righteousness and piety. Great virtues have been reported for those who perform it, among them what Al-Hakim narrated from Abu Rafi' that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever washes a deceased person and conceals their faults, will be forgiven forty times. And whoever shrouds a deceased person, Allah will clothe him from the fine silk and brocade of Paradise. And whoever digs a grave for a deceased person and buries them in it, will be given a reward like the reward of a dwelling he provided until the Day of Resurrection." This includes whoever undertakes the cost of digging and burial, just as the reward of one who provides housing for a needy person in life is attained by one who purchases a dwelling for them.
