Abu-Ja`far Al-Khazraji, in his book نفس الصباح في غريب القرآن وناسخه ومنسوخه, volume 1, page 214, says that some scholars he did not name have claimed that

was abrogated by

He said that the majority, according to Makki in his book الإيضاح, have rejected that claim and have said that what was abrogated was the practice of the Children of Israel who would not eat with or stay with a menstruating woman.

The claim is without merit, since the two verses talk about two different subjects. Verse 2:187 talks about whether it's permissible for a husband to have sexual intercourse with his wife during fasting eves. The verse says it's permissible. Verse 2:222 talks about whether it's permissible for a husband to have sexual intercourse with his wife when she's having her period. The verse says it's not permissible. Both verses taken together, as all verses of the Quran should be taken, lead to the conclusion that if the wife is menstruating on a fasting eve (or any other time), the husband should not make love to her.

Muhammad Al-Khudhari (Bek), wonders in his book أصول الفقه, page 252, why this case is listed at all, since consensus is that it not abrogated and it does not abrogate any prior order in the Quran.
