Usually, the funeral of a Muslim will take place in a Mosque where shoes are required to be removed; women and men sit separately in designated seats; and where women are obligated to wear a headscarf. Your dress should be at least to the knee and it is very possible that someone will give you a sheet to cover any showing of the leg. Stay away from loud colors (reds, yellows, etc)
The funeral service is brief, involving ritualistic chanting and readings from the Koran. Those in attendance will pay their respects by lining up and walking past the body, prior to the deceased being taken to their final resting-place. The deceased will be taken to the cemetery where the body is lowered into the ground, with the deceased's head pointing towards the direction of Mecca (The Islamic Holy Land).

I'm a muslim.
if it's from conservative people, like they're too religious, put a light scarf on your head.
But I'm guessing it's not for religious people, wear something rather formal and not too bright, whites and blacks are favoured, don't wear makeup or wear something they won't notice. and don't wear perfume.
say anything you would normally say in a funeral.

just be sure the triggereing mechanism is deactivated, or you might go to paradise earlier than anticipated.
