The ruling on covering a man's grave from the sun

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if the sun is intense, is it permissible to cover a man's grave?

Answer:
No, it is not covered. This is not among the recommended practices (sunnah). This is only for women, because a woman is an 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered). Yes.
