Best Answer

If it's women in general, then the answer would be yes. But there are some Muslim women who would prefer not to shake hands. They will put both of their palms together, place them in front of their chest and give a small nod. It's the same as shaking hands. Muslim women only do this if they want to 'shake hands' with men though, especially if they are not muhrim.

Can a woman hug a man rather than shake hands?

The short answer is yes, as a matter of fact, guys in general prefer that girls and women hug them rather than shaking hands because they want to see their feminine side. I had a cousin who used to give me hugs rather than handshakes but now she does the opposite and I really hate this about her.
