Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:

Since a man in the state of ihram does not cover his head, nor does he use perfume,
and he only wears two garments,
therefore the question arises: in the event of his death, what should be done with him?
The answer to this is found in the aforementioned hadiths.

It is better that the pilgrim’s (muhrim’s) own ihram garments be made his shroud (kafan).
Otherwise, another shroud may also be given.
Because there are narrations supporting both practices.
