Fatwa #95806 October 2003United States of America

I understand how ifyou drink alcohol, your prayers don’t get accepted for 40 days. Is it the same ifyou smoke marijuana?Will your prayers be accepted ifyou smoke marijuana? What is the ruling on that?

Answer

The law will be the same if you drink alcohol or smoke Marijuana, because both intoxicate and make a person lose his intelligence.

The Salaat of 40 days not being ?accepted? means, he will not receive reward for it, but his obligation will be absolved. (al-Targheeb wat Tarheeb vol.3 pg.260)

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
