Is there a fidyah (ransom payment) for fisq (open sinfulness) and arguing during Hajj?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : He says that Allah said:
there is [to be for him] no sexual relations and no disobedience and no disputing during Hajjفَلَا رَفَثَ وَلَا فُسُوقَ وَلَا جِدَالَ فِي الْحَجِّ
[Al-Baqarah 2:197]
, and you said that there is a fidyah for rafath (lewd speech or acts), so is there a fidyah for fisq?

Answer : Yes, we say no, there is no fidyah in it, because fisq is forbidden in the rites of Hajj and in other matters, unlike rafath, whose prohibition is specific to the state of ihram. Therefore, it is not valid to analogize what is forbidden in general to what is forbidden in a specific case. Likewise, if a person argues during Hajj, there is no penalty upon him.
