The ascension to the heaven ( Mi'raj) was not just a spiritual experience but was a real physical journey as it is clear in Quran ( Glorious is He, Who took His servant in night journey from the Masjud Al-Haraam to al-Masjid Al-Aqsa) (Sura al-Isra', verse 1). It never says that Allah Has taken the spirit of His servant, but Taken His servant which means the full physical journey and never by is spirit only.
Barzakh is the world after this life and before the day of Qiyamah. Pious believers who avoided sinful acts will enjoy peaceful life in Barzakh and their graves will be gardens from the Paradise. Believers who did not avoid sinful acts and died before full repentance and forgiveness from their sins, will meet the results of their sins in the Brazakh, so the punishment in Barzakh for those believers who did commit many sinful acts and did not seek forgiveness till they died. It is not for all believers.
May Allah The Most Merciful and Most Compassionate Protect us from sinning and the bad consequence of sins in this life and after it in Barzakh in the Day of Judgment.
Barzakh is the world which starts from our death till the day of resurrection. Every one who dies whether bekiver or non believer, will encounter the Prophet (SAWA) and Ahlul Bayt,(AS) . Believers will get glad tidings and prayers while non believers will face the results of their wrong deeds. Encountering other prophets is possible as well for the beliefs.
The Prophet (SAWA) and the Infallible Imams (AS) who have been martyred are alive and never dead. Allah says in Quran ( Never say dead to those who were been killed in the way of Allah, in fact they are alive but you don’t feel. (Sura Al-Baqara, verse 154).
All Muslims greet the Prophet (SAWA) in every Prayer by saying: ASSALAMU Alayka Ayyuhan Nabiyyu Warahmatullah Wabarakatuh. Which means that the Prophet is alive that is why we greet him from where ever we are.
'The Prophet and Infallible Imams listen to us and pray for us.
