The ruling on distributing water and sunshades during the burial of the deceased

Question:
This questioner, Abu Muhammad, says: Shaykh Salih, recently, when we attend the burial of the deceased, some people give sermons, and another group in the same cemetery prepares sunshades in the summer and gives out water. And there is, Honorable Shaykh, some confusion regarding the burial of this deceased. What do you say about this practice?

Answer:
As for distributing sunshades to shield people from the sun, that is a good deed. As for distributing water, that may lead to giving charity and preparing food, so I do not see it as permissible. If someone is thirsty, he leaves, praise be to Allah, and drinks from his family or from the street if he finds cold water or something else, and he departs, praise be to Allah. As for bringing water to the burial of the dead, I fear it will develop into bringing food and bringing charity, and the door will be opened to that. Yes.
