The answer

The relationship between a man and a woman who are not married is forbidden, and it is even more severe and reprehensible if it is between a Muslim woman and a non-Muslim man. You must advise this woman and explain the impermissibility of her actions, and threaten her by informing her family and fiancé if she does not stop. If she does not repent, then inform her fiancé, based on the saying of some scholars that it is obligatory to disclose the flaws of a suitor. We caution that spying on a Muslim is forbidden except in certain specific circumstances.
