That means if one adopts garments/symbols associated with non-believer's faith like a tilak, bindya, cross or dresses similar to their religious figures like the Rabbi/Pope/Hindu preist/Buddhist etc.Now there is this narration and tradition which says something like "If any Muslim who dresses like non Muslims will be raised on the judgement day with those non Muslims". To kya khayal hy Judaism happens to be an older religion.
The basic principle concerning garments is that they are permissible, and the Muslim may wear whatever he wants of things that he has made or that Muslims or others have made for him. This is what the Sahaabah (may Allaah be pleased with them) did in Makkah and elsewhere. Those who became Muslim did not wear special garments that were just for them. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) wore Syrian garments and Yemeni cloaks, and the people who made them were not Muslims. What matters is that the garment should meet the conditions stipulated by sharee’ah. In the answer to question no. 36891 you will find a summary of the rulings on clothing for men.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) forbade us to resemble the kuffaar in general – in clothing and in other ways. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever imitates a people is one of them.” Narrated by Abu Dawood, 4031; classed as saheeh by al-‘Iraqi in Takhreej Ihya’ ‘Uloom al-Deen (1/342) and by al-Albaani in Irwa’ al-Ghaleel, 5/109.
He also specifically forbade us to resemble them in clothing. It was narrated from ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Amr ibn al-‘Aas (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) saw him wearing two garments dyed with safflower and he said to him: “These are the garments of the kuffaar; do not wear them.” Narrated by Muslim, 2077.
Muslim (2069) narrated from ‘Umar that he wrote to the Muslims in Azerbaijan saying: “Beware of luxury and the clothing of the people of shirk.” Narrated by Muslim, 2069.
The garments of the kuffaar which the Muslims are forbidden to wear are those which are worn exclusively by the kuffaar and are not worn by anyone else. As for those which are worn by both kuffaar and Muslims, there is nothing wrong with wearing them and that is not makrooh, because they are not exclusive to the kuffaar.
The scholars of the Standing Committee for Issuing Fatwas were asked about the imitation of the kuffaar that is forbidden. They replied:
What is meant by the imitation of the kuffaar that is forbidden is resembling them in the customs that are exclusive to them, or in the religious beliefs and acts of worship that they have invented, such as imitating them by shaving the beard.
With regard to wearing pants, suits and so on, the basic principle is that all types of clothing are permissible, because this is the matter of customs. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“Say (O Muhammad): Who has forbidden the adornment with clothes given by Allaah, which He has produced for His slaves, and At-Tayyibaat [all kinds of Halaal (lawful) things] of food?”
All Abrahamic faiths ordered women to cover themselves up.Jewish (haredi sect) women do a similar burqah called Frumka
Jews are also circumcised, they also don't eat pork and slaughter animal a similar way to us...
Now perhaps you'll say since Jews slit animals throat we shouldn't imitate them.
"Khimar" is the exact Arabic word used in Quran which means a cloak which covers head and extends below. Funnily people who don't speak Arabic themselves will tell you otherwise.
