Wearing white clothes when attending a Hindu funeral

Q: According to the Hindu faith when a person passes away, the people who go to the funeral house must wear white. As a Muslim, would I be sinful if I wore white when going to the funeral house?

A: As a Muslim you should not be attending a Hindu funeral. And imitating their customs and ways is an additional sin.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
