Calculating haiz when in istihaazah

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: In the case of istihaaza, if my period starts at around 4:00-5:00, then after my haiz days I then count 15 days as clean, now I am still having discharge like 2 times a day. So if I see any discharge at approx 4:40,will my haiz start? This is because I dont know the exact time my haiz had started last time, it was around 4 to 5 o clock… So it could be after 4:40 also.

Is it important that my counting should go in exact hours and minutes or can there be a difference of half an hour or so? I have counted the above scenario as my period. Is it okay?

Bismillaah

A: In istihaazah you should revert to your original habit of tuhr and haidh.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
