Summarized notes on Surah Al-Qiyamah

Those who disbelieve in the Day of Judgement/Resurrection and lead an ignorant life, must know that this is easy for God, Who created them in the first place from just a drop of semen. No escape and respite on that Day. Believers' faces will be happy and radiant. Don't prioritize this world over the Hereafter. For God, it is easy to bring back dead to life.
