Can you file a case against a friend who borrowed money with only Whatsapp as proof?

Good day,

How can I recover my money back from a friend who borrowed money worth AED 17,000 from me last year?

We don't have any paper agreement proof but we have a WhatsApp conversation stating that she borrowed money and she will pay monthly. Until now, she has a lot of excuses and not paying.

Please I need your advice on what is the best way to do this.

Thank you so much
