Is it permissible to skip Friday Prayer in order to prepare, transport, and bury the deceased?

It is disliked to take wages for washing, shrouding, and burying the deceased, because these are acts of worship whose reward is diminished by taking payment. However, if the washer is in need, he may be given from the public treasury or according to the extent of his work. As for working for wages on Friday, there is no harm in it, but it is not permissible to miss the Friday prayer unless there is a fear that the deceased might decompose or spoil if their preparation is not hastened.
