Bringing water when burying the deceased to give people to drink

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling on bringing water when burying the deceased in order to give people to drink at the burial?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with it if the weather is hot and cold water is brought for people to drink. This is an act of kindness (ihsan). May Allah reward him with good. There is nothing wrong with it, if Allah wills. Yes.
