If the deceased has no money, who is obligated to shroud him?

The questioner : If he has no money, it is the responsibility of the person who was obligated to provide his clothing during his lifetime. If there is no such person, it is the responsibility of the public treasury. A husband is not obligated to shroud his wife.

The Shaykh : If it is not possible, such as if the public treasury is not organized and accessing it requires a long time, it is the responsibility of the Muslims who know of his situation, because shrouding the deceased

The questioner : is a collective obligation.

The Shaykh : is a high matter, but the common case is that this is a hypothetical scenario, because at the very least, it must be said that this deceased person had to have clothes on him at the time of his death. If the clothes are loose, they may be distributed over the body and cover it; otherwise, they may be insufficient.
