surah Baqarah aya 197 , English translation of the meaning Ayah.
﴿الْحَجُّ أَشْهُرٌ مَّعْلُومَاتٌ ۚ فَمَن فَرَضَ فِيهِنَّ الْحَجَّ فَلَا رَفَثَ وَلَا فُسُوقَ وَلَا جِدَالَ فِي الْحَجِّ ۗ وَمَا تَفْعَلُوا مِنْ خَيْرٍ يَعْلَمْهُ اللَّهُ ۗ وَتَزَوَّدُوا فَإِنَّ خَيْرَ الزَّادِ التَّقْوَىٰ ۚ وَاتَّقُونِ يَا أُولِي الْأَلْبَابِ﴾
[ البقرة: 197]
2:197 Hajj is [during] well-known months, so whoever has made Hajj obligatory upon himself therein [by entering the state of ihram], there is [to be for him] no sexual relations and no disobedience and no disputing during Hajj. And whatever good you do - Allah knows it. And take provisions, but indeed, the best provision is fear of Allah. And fear Me, O you of understanding.
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishThe time of the Hajj is the well-known months, starting with the month of Shawwāl and ending on the th of Dhū Al-Ḥijjah.
Sexual relations and things that lead to it are prohibited for any person who decides to perform the Hajj in these months once he enters the state of iḥrām.
In addition, the prohibition of going against Allah by committing sins becomes even more emphasised at this time due to the sacredness of the time and place.
The pilgrim may not quarrel with anyone: causing them to become angry and leading to a fight.
If you do any good, Allah knows and will reward you for it.
To perform the Hajj, take an adequate amount of food and drink, but remember that the best provision is being always mindful of Allah.
O people of sound mind, fear Allah by fulfilling His instructions and avoiding His prohibitions.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
The Hajj (pilgrimage) is (in) the well-known (lunar year) months (i.e. the 10th month, the 11th month and the first ten days of the 12th month of the Islamic calendar, i.e. two months and ten days). So whosoever intends to perform Hajj therein by assuming Ihram), then he should not have sexual relations (with his wife), nor commit sin, nor dispute unjustly during the Hajj. And whatever good you do, (be sure) Allah knows it. And take a provision (with you) for the journey, but the best provision is At-Taqwa (piety, righteousness, etc.). So fear Me, O men of understanding!

And take a provision (With you) for the journey, but the best of provisions is right conduct. So fear Me, o ye that are wise.

2:197 Hajj is [during] well-known months, so whoever has made Hajj obligatory upon translate in arabic
الحج أشهر معلومات فمن فرض فيهن الحج فلا رفث ولا فسوق ولا جدال في الحج وما تفعلوا من خير يعلمه الله وتزودوا فإن خير الزاد التقوى واتقون ياأولي الألباب
سورة: البقرة - آية: ( 197 ) - جزء: ( 2 ) - صفحة: ( 31 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
The rites of the Hajj are observed during certain fixed, known months ending in the primary devotion of the first ten days of Zu AL-Hijja when Hajj to Ka’ba is made and chief rites are commonly observed. Therefore, he who takes upon himself to make Hajj, whether throughout the whole period or only at the end part of it, shall not engage in worldly matters until all religious devotional rites have been performed. No sexual congress, indecencies, nor wrangling are permitted during AL-Hajj, and whatever good deed you do shall come to Allahs knowledge. And fit out yourselves with what is necessary for the purpose, but the best provision indeed is piety, and revere Me, O you people of understanding
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(2:197) The months for Hajj are well known to all; whoever makes up his mind to perform Hajj during these fixed months, let him totally abstain from all sorts of sexual indulgence, *214 wickedness *215 and wrangling *216 during the Hajj and remember that Allah knows whatever good you do. Take necessary provisions for Hajj, and piety is the best of all provisions: so refrain from disobeying Me, O men of understanding! *217
Hajj is [during] well-known months, so whoever has made Hajj obligatory upon meaning
*214). In the state of consecration (ihram) the husband and wife are required to refrain not only from sexual intercourse but also from lascivious conversation (and, for that matter, from any act which either stems from or is likely to stimulate sexual desire - Ed).
*215). Even though all sinful acts are evil, the sinfulness of such acts is aggravated when they are committed in the state of consecration (ihram).
*216). In this state it is not even permitted to rebuke one's servant.
*217). In the pre-Islamic Age of Ignorance it was considered an act of gross worldliness for anyone to carry provisions while on the Pilgrimage. A pious man was expected to go to the House of God without any worldly goods. This misconception is removed here and it is pointed out that abstention from carrying provisions is not necessarily an act of righteousness. True righteousness lies in the fear of God, in abstaining from violating His commands, and in leading a pure and decent life. If a pilgrim's conduct is not good and he resorts to wickedness the mere fact of not carrying provisions, thus parading his detachment from worldly goods, will do him no good. For his wickedness he will suffer humiliation both in the sight of God and man, and his action will be a desecration of the religious duty for which he undertook the journey. On the other hand, if a person's heart is full of the fear of God, and his moral conduct is good, he will be exalted by God and will be held in high esteem by human beings on his return from the Pilgrimage, regardless of the amount of provisions he carried.

حج کے مہینے سب کو معلوم ہیں جو شخص ان مقرر مہینوں میں حج کی نیت کرے، اُسے خبردار رہنا چاہیے کہ حج کے دوران اس سے کوئی شہوانی فعل، کوئی بد عملی، کوئی لڑائی جھگڑے کی بات سرزد نہ ہو اور جو نیک کام تم کرو گے، وہ اللہ کے علم میں ہوگا سفر حج کے لیے زاد راہ ساتھ لے جاؤ، اور سب سے بہتر زاد راہ پرہیزگاری ہے پس اے ہوش مندو! میر ی نا فرمانی سے پرہیز کرو
