The answer

If the money is a gift free from corrupt purposes and evil intentions, and it is not a means to evil nor does the heart become attached to it, then it is lawful and good. However, it is preferable not to accept it, as it may lead to temptation and evil. It must be noted that correspondence between the two of you is impermissible, and you must fear Allah and cease this, for such an act brings Allah's displeasure and wrath, and exposes the family to danger.
