The story of the Prophet Luqman and his wisdom - in the Quran

The Quran mentions the story of Prophet Luqman and his wisdom in a few verses, but it does not narrate a complete story. Instead, it describes the advice and wisdom that Luqman imparted to his son in a series of verses in Surah Luqman (Chapter 31, Verses 12-19).

Luqman's advice to his son emphasizes the importance of worshipping Allah alone, being respectful and obedient to one's parents, and avoiding arrogance and pride. He also emphasizes the importance of good deeds and warns against evil actions and bad company. Luqman uses various analogies to convey his message, such as the example of a mustard seed growing into a large tree, or the example of a good deed and a bad deed being like two mountains, with Allah knowing and seeing all.

Overall, Luqman's advice is focused on leading a righteous life and developing a strong relationship with Allah, and his wisdom is considered a valuable lesson for all believers.

The story of Prophet Luqman and his wisdom is mentioned in one Surah of the Quran, which is Surah Luqman (Chapter 31). The entire Surah Luqman has 34 verses, and the story of Prophet Luqman and his wisdom is mentioned in verses 12-19.

Surah Luqman, Chapter 31, Verses 12-19:

"And We had certainly given Luqman wisdom [and said], "Be grateful to Allah." And whoever is grateful is grateful for [the benefit of] himself. And whoever denies [His favor] - then indeed, Allah is Free of need and Praiseworthy.

And [mention, O Muhammad], when Luqman said to his son while he was instructing him, "O my son, do not associate [anything] with Allah. Indeed, association [with him] is great injustice."

And We have enjoined upon man [care] for his parents. His mother carried him, [increasing her] in weakness upon weakness, and his weaning is in two years. Be grateful to Me and to your parents; to Me is the [final] destination.

But if they endeavor to make you associate with Me that of which you have no knowledge, do not obey them but accompany them in [this] world with appropriate kindness and follow the way of those who turn back to Me [in repentance]. Then to Me will be your return, and I will inform you about what you used to do.

[And Luqman said], "O my son, indeed, if wrong should be the weight of a mustard seed and should be within a rock or [anywhere] in the heavens or in the earth, Allah will bring it forth. Indeed, Allah is Subtle and Acquainted.

O my son, establish prayer, enjoin what is right, forbid what is wrong, and be patient over what befalls you. Indeed, [all] that is of the matters [requiring] determination.

And do not turn your cheek [in contempt] toward people and do not walk through the earth exultantly. Indeed, Allah does not like everyone self-deluded and boastful.

And be moderate in your pace and lower your voice; indeed, the most disagreeable of sounds is the voice of donkeys."

In these verses, Luqman advises his son to worship Allah and to be kind to his parents. He also emphasizes the importance of good character, avoiding arrogance, and being mindful of one's actions. Luqman's wisdom is highly regarded and is an example of the valuable teachings that can be found in the Quran.
