surah Baqarah aya 235 , English translation of the meaning Ayah.
﴿وَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْكُمْ فِيمَا عَرَّضْتُم بِهِ مِنْ خِطْبَةِ النِّسَاءِ أَوْ أَكْنَنتُمْ فِي أَنفُسِكُمْ ۚ عَلِمَ اللَّهُ أَنَّكُمْ سَتَذْكُرُونَهُنَّ وَلَٰكِن لَّا تُوَاعِدُوهُنَّ سِرًّا إِلَّا أَن تَقُولُوا قَوْلًا مَّعْرُوفًا ۚ وَلَا تَعْزِمُوا عُقْدَةَ النِّكَاحِ حَتَّىٰ يَبْلُغَ الْكِتَابُ أَجَلَهُ ۚ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَعْلَمُ مَا فِي أَنفُسِكُمْ فَاحْذَرُوهُ ۚ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ حَلِيمٌ﴾
[ البقرة: 235]
2:235 There is no blame upon you for that to which you [indirectly] allude concerning a proposal to women or for what you conceal within yourselves. Allah knows that you will have them in mind. But do not promise them secretly except for saying a proper saying. And do not determine to undertake a marriage contract until the decreed period reaches its end. And know that Allah knows what is within yourselves, so beware of Him. And know that Allah is Forgiving and Forbearing.
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishThere is no sin on you if you hint to your desire to propose to a woman who is still in her waiting period after a divorce or after the death of her husband.
For example, a person may say, ‘When your waiting period is over, let me know’.
There is also no sin on you if you keep this desire to yourselves.
Allah knows that you will mention them because of your strong desire to marry, so He has allowed you to give a hint without being open.
Beware of secretly making any promise to marry them whilst they are still in their waiting period.
However, you may give a hint to them in the manner that is acceptable; but do not confirm the marriage contract in the period of waiting.
Know that Allah is aware of what is in your hearts, so be mindful of Him and do not go against His instruction.
Know that Allah Forgiving to the person who repents to Him; and that He is tolerant and does not often quickly punish.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And there is no sin on you if you make a hint of betrothal or conceal it in yourself, Allah knows that you will remember them, but do not make a promise of contract with them in secret except that you speak an honourable saying according to the Islamic law (e.g. you can say to her, "If one finds a wife like you, he will be happy"). And do not consummate the marriage until the term prescribed is fulfilled. And know that Allah knows what is in your minds, so fear Him. And know that Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Forbearing.

Abdullah Yusuf Ali - Translation
There is no blame on you if ye make an offer of betrothal or hold it in your hearts. Allah knows that ye cherish them in your hearts: But do not make a secret contract with them except in terms Honourable, nor resolve on the tie of marriage till the term prescribed is fulfilled. And know that Allah Knoweth what is in your hearts, and take heed of Him; and know that Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Forbearing.
Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarakpuri
And there is no sin on you if you make a hint of betrothal or conceal it in yourself, Allah knows that you will remember them, but do not make a promise (of contract) with them in secret except that you speak an honorable saying. And do not be determined on the marriage bond until the term prescribed is fulfilled. And know that Allah knows what is in your minds, so fear Him. And know that Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Forbearing.

2:235 There is no blame upon you for that to which you [indirectly] translate in arabic
ولا جناح عليكم فيما عرضتم به من خطبة النساء أو أكننتم في أنفسكم علم الله أنكم ستذكرونهن ولكن لا تواعدوهن سرا إلا أن تقولوا قولا معروفا ولا تعزموا عقدة النكاح حتى يبلغ الكتاب أجله واعلموا أن الله يعلم ما في أنفسكم فاحذروه واعلموا أن الله غفور حليم
سورة: البقرة - آية: ( 235 ) - جزء: ( 2 ) - صفحة: ( 38 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
You men incur no consequence if, at this time, you ethically and indirectly advance your marriage offer for consideration, or if you only entertain the idea or cling to hope. Allah knows well that attraction to women is natural to you and that you think about them. But do not secretly propose to them during this determined period, but you may hold honourable conversation with them. Nor can you enter into a marriage contract until the determined period has been fulfilled. You ought to realise that Allah knows what is hidden in your innermost being, therefore, beware of Him and be cautious and realise that He is Ghafurun and Halimun (Indulgent and Forbearing)
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(2:235) It is no offence if you make indirect proposal of marriage to widows during their waiting term or keep it concealed in your hearts: for Allah knows that you will naturally think of them. But be careful not to make any secret engagement. If you have to do anything, do it in an honourable way. And you should not settle anything finally about the marriage until the waiting term expires. Understand it well that Allah even knows what is hidden in your hearts; so fear Him. Also know that Allah is Lenient and Forgiving.

زمانہ عدت میں خواہ تم اُن بیوہ عورتوں کے ساتھ منگنی کا ارادہ اشارے کنایے میں ظاہر کر دو، خواہ دل میں چھپائے رکھو، دونوں صورتوں میں کوئی مضائقہ نہیں اللہ جانتا ہے کہ اُن کا خیال تو تمہارے دل میں آئے گا ہی مگر دیکھو! خفیہ عہد و پیمان نہ کرنا اگر کوئی بات کرنی ہے، تو معرف طریقے سے کرو اور عقد نکاح باندھنے کا فیصلہ اُس وقت تک نہ کرو، جب تک کہ عدت پوری نہ ہو جائے خوب سمجھ لو کہ اللہ تمہارے دلوں کا حال تک جانتا ہے لہٰذا اس سے ڈرو اور یہ بھی جان لو کہ اللہ بردبار ہے، چھوٹی چھوٹی باتوں سے درگزر فرماتا ہے
