Endowing land for a cemetery and whether it is a continuing charity

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a person endows land in a cemetery, is that considered a continuing charity?

Answer:
Without a doubt, endowing cemetery land is one of the charitable projects, and he has a reward for it; because they are dwellings for the deceased Muslims, just as one endows a building to house the poor among the living, one endows land to house the dead in it, and you have a reward for that.
