What is the ruling on speaking with a close female relative who is suffering from psychological problems and contemplating suicide, knowing that there was a previous relationship, and is it permissible to communicate with her for fear that harm may befall her?

Familiarity and communication between young men and foreign young women are not permissible, as this opens doors to evil and corruption. The relationship with the girl must be severed, and there should be no return to correspondence or speaking with her. Her family should be advised to pay attention to her affairs and fulfill their responsibilities towards her. It would be preferable if some of the questioner's righteous female mahrams (unmarriageable kin) spoke with her to guide her towards rectitude.
