Was Michelle Obama Wrong To Shake Hands With The New King Of Saudi Arabia?

Following the death of King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia a few days ago, the United State president, Barack Obama and first lady, Michelle Obama have visited the new king, Salman bin Abdulaziz to pay their respects.

However, one part of the visit that reporters latched on is the fact that the first lady shook hands with the king.

This is because the Islamic law generally forbids men from touching women to whom they are not related. However, that rule is often times overlooked when official diplomatic delegations visit the kingdom.

So was it wrong for Michelle Obama to have shook hands with king Abdullaziz?
