The answer

Consuming drugs is a heinous sin and a major one among the grave sins, necessitating repentance with all its conditions. Remorse is one of these conditions, and it alone is not sufficient. The divorce you initiated while being fully aware of what you were saying is effective. If you divorced your wife three times while she was under your marital bond, then she has become irrevocably separated from you, and she is not lawful for you until she marries another man with a valid marriage, and he then divorces her after consummating the marriage. The majority of scholars hold that divorce during menstruation, postpartum bleeding, and during a period of purity in which intercourse occurred is valid, and this is the most preponderant view.
