Rights Related to the Estate and the Expenses of Preparing the Deceased

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question: Is the first thing taken from the deceased's estate the cost of the shroud and the wrapping?

Answer: The first thing taken from the estate is the cost of preparation; such as the value of the shroud, the fee for the one who washes the body, the one who digs the grave, and the like. Then the debts secured by a pledge, then the unsecured debts that have no pledge, then the bequest of one-third or less to a non-heir, then the inheritance.
