Question

Does smoking marijuana also cause all ibaadat to not be accepted for 40 days like alcohol? Does the same apply to recreational drugs like ecstasy and lsd?

Answer

Apparently, the law will be the same as both are intoxicants.

If the element of intoxication is found it will be the same.

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