Calculating haiz when in istihaazah

· 16 Shaʻban 1439 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

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?

Answer

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

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