2:222 And they ask you about menstruation. Say, "It is harm, so keep away from wives during menstruation. And do not approach them until they are pure. And when they have purified themselves, then come to them from where Allah has ordained for you. Indeed, Allah loves those who are constantly repentant and loves those who purify themselves."
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishO Prophet! Your Companions ask you about menses ( which is the blood of menstruation that naturally comes out of the womb at certain times of the month ).
Say in reply to them: Menses is harmful to the man and woman, so avoid sexual intercourse during this time.
Do not approach them for sexual intercourse until the blood stops and they have cleaned themselves by taking a bath.
If the blood has stopped and they have cleaned themselves, then you may have sexual intercourse with them through the vagina in the manner that Allah has permitted for you.
Allah loves those that frequently repent from their sins and are extra mindful of cleanliness.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
They ask you concerning menstruation. Say: that is an Adha (a harmful thing for a husband to have a sexual intercourse with his wife while she is having her menses), therefore keep away from women during menses and go not unto them till they have purified (from menses and have taken a bath). And when they have purified themselves, then go in unto them as Allah has ordained for you (go in unto them in any manner as long as it is in their vagina). Truly, Allah loves those who turn unto Him in repentance and loves those who purify themselves (by taking a bath and cleaning and washing thoroughly their private parts, bodies, for their prayers, etc.).

They ask thee concerning women's courses. Say: They are a hurt and a pollution: So keep away from women in their courses, and do not approach them until they are clean. But when they have purified themselves, ye may approach them in any manner, time, or place ordained for you by Allah. For Allah loves those who turn to Him constantly and He loves those who keep themselves pure and clean.

ويسألونك عن المحيض قل هو أذى فاعتزلوا النساء في المحيض ولا تقربوهن حتى يطهرن فإذا تطهرن فأتوهن من حيث أمركم الله إن الله يحب التوابين ويحب المتطهرين
سورة: البقرة - آية: ( 222 ) - جزء: ( 2 ) - صفحة: ( 35 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
They ask you, O Muhammad, for information relative to womens menstruation and whether sexual congress is permissible in its duration. Say to them: It is an unwholesome phase in the womans menstrual cycle fraught with systemic changes including personality alteration and a general decrease in resistance to disease. Therefore, leave women alone during menstruation and do not approach them until they are clear of it and have cleansed. When once they are ritually conditioned, you may feel free to approach them in the manner Allah has ordained. Allah likes those who in lowliest plight repentant stand and those who free themselves of physical, moral and spiritual defilement
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(2:222) They ask about the monthly course. Say, "It is a state of impurity; *238 so keep apart from women during their monthly course and do not go near them until they are clean. *239 When they have cleansed themselves, then you may go to them in the manner Allah has enjoined you." *240 Most surely Allah loves those people who refrain from evil and keep themselves pure and clean.
And they ask you about menstruation. Say, "It is harm, so keep meaning
*238). The Arabic word adha denotes both a state of ritual impurity and sickness. Menstruation is not merely an impurity, but also a state in which the woman is closer to sickness than to health.
*239). With regard to matters such as these the Qur'an resorts to metaphors and figurative language. Hence it instructs men not to approach women. This does not mean that people should either abstain from sitting together on the same floor or eating together when a woman has her monthly period making her virtually an untouchable, as has been the custom among the Jews, Hindus and certain other nations. The explanation of this injunction by the Prophet makes it clear that during this period men are only required to abstain from sexual intercourse; no change is postulated in other relationships, and the woman is to be treated in the normal way. (See, for instance, Bukhari, 'Hayd', 10, 'Itikaf', 2-4, 10, 19; Muslim, 'Hayd', 6-13; Abu Da'ud, 'Taharah', 102, 106 - Ed.)
*240). The 'command' of God mentioned here is not a formal legal injunction from God, but that inherent urge with which the nature of both men and animals has been imbued and which is apprehended instinctively.
(The verse means, therefore, that after the end of the menstrual course people may again engage in sexual intercourse - Ed.)
And they ask you about menstruation. Say, "It is harm, so keep meaning in Urdu
پوچھتے ہیں: حیض کا کیا حکم ہے؟ کہو: وہ ایک گندگی کی حالت ہے اس میں عورتوں سے الگ رہو اور ان کے قریب نہ جاؤ، جب تک کہ وہ پاک صاف نہ ہو جائیں پھر جب وہ پاک ہو جائیں، تو اُن کے پاس جاؤ اُس طرح جیسا کہ اللہ نے تم کو حکم دیا ہے اللہ اُن لوگوں کو پسند کرتا ہے، جو بدی سے باز رہیں اور پاکیزگی اختیار کریں
