Meaning of the Hadith regarding adopting the way of a certain group of people

Q: What is the signification of: "Whoever imitates a group then he is from amongst them"?

A: The one who adopts the way of a certain group (in their values or dressing etc), it is a sign of him being pleased with their way. Hence, he will be viewed accordingly in the sight of Allah Ta’ala.
