Financing the Shroud from the Estate of the Deceased
Issue No.543- The obligatory and recommended portions of shroud can be financed, to the customary extent, from the estate of the deceased, though the heir is a minor. However, if it costs more than usual it cannot be taken from the share of the minor, unless he has made a will with regard to the extra, and in this case, the extra quantity of the shroud can be taken from the 1⁄3 of the estate.
