Shroud usually refers to an item, such as a cloth, that covers or protects some other object. The term is most often used in reference to burial sheets, mound shroud, grave clothes, winding-cloths or winding-sheets, such as the famous Shroud of Turin, tachrichim that Jews are dressed in for burial, or the white cotton kaffan sheets Muslims are wrapped in for burial.

कफन अंत्येष्टि में प्रयोग किया जानेवाला श्वेत वस्त्र को कहा जाता है जो मृत व्यक्ति के शरीर पर डाला जाता है। यही क्रिया दफ़नाते समय मुस्लमान भी करते हैं। यह शब्द अरबी से ही हिन्दी में आया है।
