As being the best social network facebook has some serious restrictions and they can easily identify fake accounts. So your account can get disabled or temporary locked anytime if you do spamming or use facebook features too much. If your account is temporarily locked then you can easily log in by answering some security questions or identifying your friend’s pictures but if your account is temporary disable then you won’t be able to log in.

How Much Time does it take?
It may take up to a week for your account to get reactivated. Meanwhile, you should regularly check your mail as whenever your account gets reactivated Facebook will send a confirmation email. When your account gets reactivated you will have access to all facebook features so make sure you don’t use them too often. One of the biggest reason why facebook account gets disabled is when you join tons of groups and then try to post in all of them. I suggest you not to join over 200 groups.
