Question:
The questioner asks: What is the Shari'ah-compliant manner that a woman must adopt in her phone conversations with other men?
Answer:
The way is for her to speak in an ordinary manner, without joking and without giving the man any hope of her. Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Ahzab 33:32] This means ordinary speech that does not give hope to one who has suspicion or desire. She should speak to him in an ordinary manner only to the extent of necessity. If he asks her about something, she answers him. If he greets her, she returns the salam. And she should use a normal voice.

Answer:
The way is for her to speak in an ordinary manner, without joking and without giving the man any hope of her. Allah the Exalted said:
then do not be soft in speech [to men], lest he in whose heart is disease should covet, but speak with appropriate speech.
فَلَا تَخْضَعْنَ بِالْقَوْلِ فَيَطْمَعَ الَّذِي فِي قَلْبِهِ مَرَضٌ وَقُلْنَ قَوْلًا مَّعْرُوفًا
