Is the life of the barzakh like the life of this world?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: I hope you will clarify for us the life of the barzakh, and whether their state is like our state in this worldly life, and why it is called the life of the barzakh?

Answer:
The life of the barzakh is a life in the grave; this is the life of the barzakh, and it is among the matters of the Hereafter, which no one knows except Allah. It differs from life in this world. The one alive in this world marries, and the one alive in this world prays, fasts, buys, and sells. But the one alive in the grave does not do any of these things. His wife marries, his wealth is inherited, and he is not asked about anything. Life in the barzakh differs from life in this world.
The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is alive in his grave, just as the other prophets were. They did not go to him to ask him, seek his legal opinion, or consult him on matters, as they did when he was alive. Yes.
