There are a number of verses in the Qur’an showing that the inhabitants of Paradise will visit and remind each other of what they had between them and what they used to occupy themselves with during their time in this life (see as-Saffat; 50-51 and at-Tur; 25-28).

Ibn al-Qayyim, in his book ‘Hadi al-Arwah’ (p. 338), concludes a chapter on this topic by describing the state of those who loved to read, discuss, and otherwise occupy themselves with Shar’i knowledge during their time in this world while everyone else was doing their thing:

Quote:

“…And if they will discuss the things that happened between them, then discussing what they were curious about in this world related to knowledge, understanding the Qur’an and Sunnah, and the authenticity of ahadith is even more likely and appropriate. This is because discussing these things in this life was more pleasurable for them than eating, drinking, and sex. So, discussing this in Paradise would be even sweeter, and this is a pleasure that only the people of knowledge experience, and it’s what distinguishes them from everyone else…”
