Handshake with Husband's Relatives

Question
Is it permissible for a woman to shake hands with her husband's brothers and uncles?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is not permissible for her to shake hands except with those who are permanently forbidden to her, and these have a temporary prohibition like any man, so it is not permissible to shake hands with them, and God knows best.
