What is obligatory upon you is to sever ties with your friend's fiancé, because he is a stranger to you, and it is not permissible for a woman to establish a friendly relationship with a strange man. Obeying your mother is obligatory if she forbids you from accompanying your friend. Engagement is merely a promise of marriage, and the fiancé is a stranger to his fiancée until the legal contract is concluded, so it is not permissible for her to speak with him except to the extent of need, while observing the Sharia guidelines.
