Chareidim dressing like Muslims

I have been saying for a long time that this will happen one day. And that day was this year’s Erev Pesach. I walked into the local Mehadrin supermarket which was packed with people and see this woman standing in line to the cash register. At first I thought to myself, "That’s weird. What’s a religious Muslim woman doing in a supermarket in Ramat Bet Shemesh?" And then I realized that this is a chasidishe lady dressed in a Muslim garb. She was standing with her kid with long peyos looking like a regular chasidishe kid. But she was wearing something that looked like a hajab with her whole head covered and only her face exposed.

I don't really understand how someone can decide that dressing tzniyus is the same as dressing like a Muslim. But here it is.


I took this picture from my (obviously not kosher, but more on that later) cell phone at night on the street as they left the store.

Maybe she is married to an Arab?
