In June 2016, a photograph that purported to show First Lady Michelle Obama hugging one of her daughters (who was wearing a graduation cap decorated with a quote from the Prophet Muhammad at the time) started circulating on social media. The photograph is real, but the pictured student is not one of Obama's daughters. The photograph was originally posted to the First Lady's Instagram account on 6 June 2016, and was taken shortly after she delivered the commencement speech at the City College of New York: While The First Lady shared several photographs featuring writing on graduation caps (The sky is not the limit, it is the beginning. Class of 2016, Thank you Mom I love you, The best is yet to come) Obama singled out the student in the image displayed above for being the first person in her family to graduate college: Neither Malia nor Sasha Obama attend City College of New York, nor have either of the two First Daughters attended college as of June 2016. Malia graduated from high school in 2016, while Sasha just turned 15.
